- 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.
