The Centre:
Situated on the West Coast of Ireland this purpose built centre caters to the specific needs of each of the birds that we house here. In the viewing area a unique space has been created for each species. Every enclosure is specially designed to mimic the natural habitat of the bird. The nursery houses a climate controlled incubator and other vital equipment for breeding purposes. All of which is within the Aillwee Cave complex, another great attraction to be enjoyed.
Flight demonstrations are staged in the display area, a grass arena accommodating 200 people complete with a state of the art sound system for informative commentary during the flight displays. Browse through our distinctly different gift shop and seek out unusual items to remember your experience by, including photography and educational literature.
