Donkey Sanctuary

Nerja’s very own donkey sanctuary, established in 2004, is a great place for kids and adults to come and meet rescued donkeys, mules and horses. Like a city farm the sanctuary is also often home to other abandoned farm animals; lambs, piglets and goats and there are always a few cute baby donkeys. Entry is free and it is open every day of the year. You can bring carrots and feed the donkeys by hand.

Visitor hours are 10am to 2pm and again in the evening from 5-6pm. In July and August the opening hours are 10-2 and 5-8pm

Volunteers are always welcome so if you’d like to help out why not come in or give us a call. Not all of the jobs are messy or too hands on as we always need people to help meet and greet visitors and show people around.
