Whether you choose to pay R65 or just walk the boardwalks and go to the open beach you will see the penguins. They are great to see and get pictures of. Don't be fooled by their cute faces they do peck if you get too closd especially if they have young with them

After you park you walk down a street for a few minutes then reach the board walked area. Saw many penguins and their babies and shelters, both natural and manmade.

We first stopped off at seaforth beach and saw just a few penguins at a distance. We then walked over to boulders beach and braved the crowds on the boardwalk to see the larger colony. We saw them on the beach and swimming, even a few with young ones that were still a bit fuzzy! Just fantastic!

I could not get over how adorable they are, and how many! I loved watching them body surf the waves and waddle up onto the shore. Top of my list of things to do while in Cape Town, especially if you can tie into a Cape Point/Peninsula tour!

Really Amazing place with a lot of cute pinguins. Its a little bit expensive but it really worth it !

Needless to say... More 

This is a lovely beach if one likes to sunbathe. Generally windless. Lots of penguins. Good tourist spot.

One is not allowed to consume alcohol on South African beaches.
