What you can expect

Marvel at hundreds of the world's smallest penguin species as they return from a day's fishing. See the wild blue penguins make their way up the beach and a stony ramp before they cross into their colony.

Upon arrival at the Penguin Colony, check in with one of the local operator's team members, before being guided to your seating area. Then, watch the penguins make their journey up to their specially made nesting boxes from no more than 15 metres/16.5 yards away.

Throughout the experience, delight in the informative commentary of your expert team. Learn about the average life of blue penguins, their different breeding patterns, and why the conservation of these tiny birds is so important in New Zealand. If you're lucky, you may also see a range of different wildlife in the area, such as fur seals and seabirds.
