Review:
As the home to thousands of endangered African penguins, Boulder’s Beach lets guests get up close and personal to these fascinating animals. During a visit, the annoying squawk of birds makes it easily apparent why this species has received the nickname of the “jackass penguin”. Boulder’s Beach is open to the public, and visitors only have to pay an entrance fee. There they can observe the birds roaming and swimming freely throughout the sheltered beach comprised of inlets reaching between ancient granite boulders. The large boulders block the water from the wind and large waves, making it an ideal location for kids to go swimming.
