Tour
The Penneshaw Penguin Centre provides tours to educate the public about a very special sea bird found on Kangaroo Island- the little penguin! We advocate for the conservation of little penguins.

The little penguins are small in number, and it is now considered a privilege to see little penguins in the wild on Kangaroo Island. Coming on a penguin tour is the most penguin-friendly way to see the little penguins.

The Penneshaw Penguin Centre contains fascinating sea life specimens and informative displays. It is the only operational penguin centre in South Australia.
