Boudewijn Seapark, Belgium
Old 23-03-2008

Near the town of Bruges in Flanders, the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium, there is a park called 'Boudewijn Seapark'. It's a little park with the only dolphinarium of Belgium, sealions, common seals and some amusement attractions.
The park has 9 dolphins: Flo, Linda, Milo, Puck, Roxanne, Yotta, Indy, Mateo & Ocean.

Some impressions:

I went here in 2003. Apart from dolphins (which I had never seen before) I thought it was OK...

This is also one of the birds there, a Yellow-billed stork. I haven"t seen them before i camed to Boudewijnpark



By the way, i find the sealdemonstration a little bit boring in most zoo's, but in Boudewijnpark they jump realy out of the water. I had seen that only with sealions, sow it was pretty amazing



And ofcourse, the delphins can jump also



More pictures of boudewijnpark?
