Kangaroo Island Penguin Centre
Kingscote
The Kangaroo Island Penguin Centre provides tours of Kingscote?s little penguin colony, a penguin interpretive centre and saltwater aquariums containing a variety of sea creatures from Kangaroo Island's waters. A large star chart explains some of the constellations in the night sky that you may see while on tour in the penguin colony. Penguin tours begin in the Centre with guides feeding some of the sea creatures. Moving outside, visitors take a torch lit walk around the foreshore through Kingscote's little penguin colony. Each tour takes about one hour and it is recommended you bring warm clothes or a windbreaker jacket and wear closed, sturdy shoes to walk through the colony. Pelican feeding is also available daily at 5pm at the water?s edge behind the Centre, near the small Fisherman's Jetty. The Centre?s retail area contains souvenirs and Kangaroo Island products.
Wheelchair access is available in the Penguin Centre building and the Penguin Colony's boardwalk is suitable for wheelchairs. Assistance may be required during the tour. Disabled parking is available.
