Unveiling Morocco’s Crocodile Kingdom
Meet the Nile Crocodiles
Crocoparc is Morocco’s only dedicated crocodile park, spanning 4 hectares and home to 325 Nile crocodiles ranging from newborn hatchlings to giants exceeding three meters in length. These prehistoric reptiles bask on sunlit “beaches,” rest in heated burrows, and glide through three cascade-fed basins that mimic the Nile’s riverine flow—an environment meticulously engineered for both animal welfare and visitor viewing.
Conservation and Education
Since its inauguration on May 31, 2015, Crocoparc has championed the return of the Nile crocodile to southern Morocco after a century of local extinction. A dedicated laboratory and nursery, inaugurated in 2016, allow visitors and researchers alike to observe the hatching and early development of baby crocodiles—an inspiring testament to conservation efforts. Informative panels and knowledgeable guides enrich your experience by illuminating crocodile biology, behavior, and the park’s role in species preservation.
Botanical Wonders Across Five Thematic Gardens
Interwoven among the reptile habitats, Crocoparc’s botanical garden showcases plants from every corner of the globe, organized into five immersive zones:
- Blue Garden: Soft-silvery succulents like the rare Aloe suzannae glint in the Moroccan sun.
- Exotic Site: Towering ficus trees with aerial roots form a living cathedral where centuries of growth unfold overhead.
- Aquatic Garden: Broad Victoria water lilies and papyrus stands evoke the mystery of the Nile’s waterways.
- Tropical Area: Lush bromeliads, giant bamboo, and palms create a steamy understorey alive with color.
- Cactus Garden: Spiky specimens from Madagascar to the Americas are linked by a thrilling “Monkey Bridge” that lets you peer over the spines.
Family Fun and Interactive Experiences
Crocoparc is as engaging for young explorers as it is for wildlife enthusiasts. The park’s interactive zone features touch-screen displays and animated models that demystify crocodile anatomy and habits. Little adventurers can burn off energy in the jungle-themed playground, complete with slides, swings, and rope climbs set among fragrant palm groves
