General Park Information:

- The boardwalk leading to the Penguin Plus and Penguin Discovery Platforms will no longer be accessible to general admission ticket holders wishing to view penguins as they return from the beach. This change is necessary to address safety concerns due to increased visitor numbers at our premium platforms, Penguin Discovery, Penguin Plus and Underground. The area of the boardwalk near the restrooms and up the hill will remain open to all visitors.

- Additionally, the new Shearwater Boardwalk is open to all visitors. This new boardwalk offers a spacious viewing area for guests to observe the penguins returning to their burrows. We kindly ask that you inform your guides and drivers to share this information with all guests. Please let them know that the new boardwalk provides enhanced viewing opportunities for the penguins.
Valid for 01APR23-31MAR25:
