The Paradise Nature Park is fun for all the family with something for everyone…it really is one of the best things to do in Barbados!
Set in five acres of lush botanical gardens, the Park plays host to traditional and exotic animals and plants from around the World. The self-guided tours and daily talks allow you to immerse yourself in the natural world and meet many interesting and unusual species….it is so much more than you would expect.
You will find many colourful and interesting animals from Parrots, Toucans and Emus through to Tortoises, Rabbits and rare breed pigs. Our collection of miniature animals are a delight, with Miniature Kune Kune Pigs, Pygmy Goats and adorable miniature Mediterranean Donkeys…. the smallest Donkeys in the Caribbean! There is an enchanting Orchid House, and a tropical fruit orchard where you can see Pineapples and Dragon fruit growing.
Our wellness centre offers a range of therapeutic activities that can be tailored to meet your requirements. A popular activity is equine assisted sessions with our experienced UK qualified psychologist and our affectionate miniature Donkeys; ideal for those who want to relax and unwind, or indeed do more specific or deeper work.
By night, The Paradise Nature Park transforms into a captivating function and wedding venue, the beautiful tropical gardens create an air of enchantment with a relaxed ambiance. Our culinary partner, the internationally acclaimed chef Michael Hinds, formerly of Sandy Lane Hotel, can cater to your every need to help create the perfect event.
