Un posto assolutamente fantastico se amate la natura e gli animali. Siamo stati accolti dai sigilli e abbiamo fatto un tour di un giorno per vedere i pinguini intorno ai loro nidi. Ogni centesimo va verso il meraviglioso lavoro che fanno, costruendo una colonia sana di pinguini.....

I pinguini uscono dall'acqua solo dopo il tramonto, ma se sei fortunato puoi vederli tra settembre e metà febbraio. Ci sono supervisori sul posto che sono preoccupati per il benessere dei pinguini, che è grande!

Siamo stati lì, è un posto molto bello. Non abbiamo visto nessun pinguino. Ma siamo onesti, con i bambini che urlano e turisti in attesa, probabilmente hanno cambiato i continenti molto tempo fa.

We came after sunset and saw about 8 penguins:) super nice experience!

Saw 2 penguins tonight. So close and so cute. It was between 9.15 and 10.30

Off season at the moment, but still saw one penguin - totally worth it! Came out of the ocean at 22:43. There's a person there every evening that can answer your questions. Just be sure to go after dark - you will not see any penguins in daylight!

A must see! Penguins don’t come until it’s dark but when they do they’re within 1-4 meters from the footpath. Definitely a must see if you’re in Timaru. Pretty sad that local council/police don’t care about the penguins welfare very much; boy racers up and down marine drive honking, revving engines and purposefully backfiring their engines just to scare the penguins. Calling police didn’t result in much either. Try get a number plate and car model if you can.

Saw like 10 penguins and even some babies really close. They started coming at 9:30pm, so cute! But stranger driving in their car really loud and also honked..

A must do!!! One of my highlights in NZ so far. The volunteers were amazing and the penguins are so cute? so worth it!

Must do! Lots of penguins, we arrived from 9pm onwards. Even little baby penguins waiting to be fed. The ladies volunteering to protect the penguins were just so admirable. They were lovely and it was a great moment to see them swim out the ocean. Drive slow if you’re driving down as they do loose some to the cars! Thanks volunteers!
