Stony Point Penguin Colony

South Africa · Where mountains meet two oceans

The most beautiful penguin colony of the trip — wilder, quieter and far more striking than Boulders Beach, with boardwalks running right through the nesting grounds.

Lesser-known fact

Stony Point at Betty's Bay sits on the site of a former whaling station, and is now one of the fastest-growing mainland African Penguin colonies in the world.
