    Boulders Beach Penguin Colony

    From the Cape of Good Hope, the journey continues along the scenic False Bay coastline to the world-famous Boulders Beach Penguin Colony in Simon’s Town. This sheltered beach is home to one of the largest and most accessible colonies of endangered African penguins, offering a rare opportunity to see these charming birds up close in their natural environment. Visitors can stroll along the wooden boardwalks that wind through the dunes and granite boulders, providing excellent vantage points without disturbing the penguins. Watching them waddle along the sand, nest in burrows, or swim playfully in the crystal-clear waters is both entertaining and unforgettable. Boulders Beach also offers a striking backdrop of white sand, turquoise waters, and massive boulders, making it one of the most picturesque spots on the Cape Peninsula.
