About Robben Island Penguin Colony
Robben Island Penguin Colony, located off Cape Town in the Western Cape, is a remarkable site where visitors can enjoy guided tours to view African penguins in their natural breeding environment. The colony offers opportunities to observe thousands of penguins moulting and nesting, alongside other seabirds, during ferry trips that depart daily from the V&A Waterfront. Notably, the colony has grown to over 13,000 penguins since its re-establishment in 1983.
