Seal safari AquaZoo Friesland nominated for award!

AquaZoo Friesland's Seal Safari has been nominated for a Diamond Theme Park Award in the category of "best adventure at the zoo.

"We are extremely proud to be nominated for this award! During the seal safari, our visitors get to ride on a barge and meet the seals up close. They respond very enthusiastically and it would of course be fantastic for us if this appreciation is rewarded with such a beautiful award!", says branch manager Jeroen Loomeijer.

Diamond Themepark Awards

The presentation of the Diamond Themepark Awards has become a household word in the Netherlands and Belgium. It is a recognition towards zoos and theme parks, from a composite jury of seasoned fans on the one hand, and the regular visitor on the other. Last year nearly 45,000 people voted for their favorite park.

Seal safari

During the Seal Safari, visitors can get up close and personal with the seals in their large interactive enclosure. Accompanied by caretakers, visitors may sail along on a tow barge. Children can help pull the barge into the middle of the lake while the seals curiously take a look along the way. Of course, children can also help feed the seals a fish!
