Dubai Crocodile Park
Dubai Crocodile Park is a zoo in Mushrif housing over 250 Nile crocodiles in large pools and outdoor areas. The enclosures are filled with clear water and landscaped to imitate the natural habitat of these reptiles.
The park opened in April 2023 and displays crocodile history through an integrated museum. The museum documents how these reptiles have evolved over millions of years and survived various environmental changes.
The park displays Nile crocodiles from Africa in habitats designed to resemble their natural environment. Visitors can watch these animals rest and move both in water and on land, much like they would in their African home.
Visitors can walk along paths around the enclosures and observe crocodiles at different times of day when they are active or resting. The park offers shaded and air-conditioned areas to cool off during hot weather.
The park offers daily experiences where children can see baby crocodiles up close and even hold them. This gives young visitors the chance to safely touch these animals and learn about their size and texture firsthand.
