I remember the penguins from when I was young and at school. These pictures bring back fond memories.

I am currently planning on going on an adventure holiday in south africa. A few adventure activities on the list include, shark cage diving and abseiling. However I'm definitely gonna check out the penguins in Simonstown. I love animals and like you said, penguins are so cute! Great post!

Hi Kim, That is hilarious! The things that tourists ask sometimes just blows me away. Great answer.

My endering memory of boulders beach is walking out of the sea at around 11am in full scuba gear. There were penguins everywhere and one of the tourists asked us if it was our job each morning to go out and shoo all the penguins onto the beach. To which my friend gave the only answer possible – “YES!”

Yep. Dave takes all of our photo’s. I love them too! If we happen to use anyone else’s photos on the site, we give them a “courtesy of” title. Thanks for the reply!

I would love to swim with penguins- sounds like fun. I’ll have to go to S.A. during the summer then!

I adore penguins! These are great photographs. Did you take them? I love the close up of the 3 on the beach. Looks like they’re cruisin’…

I always associate penguins with cold weather. Still couldn’t believe to see penguins by the beach. They do have a great taste in choosing their view.
