Start your visit in the Discovery Centre where you’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at the world of little penguins. Then, head outdoors to take your seat in the Premium or General viewing stand. Guided by one of our penguin specialists, you’ll see the penguins come ashore, make their way up a stony ramp and head to their nests. If you're lucky, you may also see a range of different wildlife in the area, such as fur seals and seabirds. You will see the penguins from about 10–15 meters away in the General Entry grandstand. For a more comfortable experience and closer viewing from only a few meters away, the Premium Viewing area has limited seating, so bookings are advised.
