Penguin Island offers several ways for visitors to see penguins, including taking a ferry from the mainland, paddling a canoe, or boating over. Once on the island, visitors can feed and learn about penguins at the Discovery Centre, take a glass bottom boat cruise, or enjoy other activities like swimming with dolphins. It is a popular tourist destination just 45 minutes outside of Perth.

3. INTRODUCTION
• Penguin Island has hundreds of
things to do, but I’m going to
tell you about the most favourite,
popular and common thing to do on
Penguin Island. See the penguins
of course!

4. HOW TO GET TO
PENGUIN ISLAND
• THERE ARE 4 WAYS TO GET TO
PENGUIN ISLAND:
• THE RELAXING WAY: Take a ferry that
runs all day from 9am to 4pm.
• THE HARD WAY: Take your boat and
travel over there by yourself or with your
friends and family.
• THE EXERCISE WAY: Hire a canoe and
paddle your way over there.

5. food
• Food: There is no where on the island
to buy food or drink and no bbq so you
have two choices: bring a picnic or get
back on the ferry when you’re hungry
and have lunch at the café near the
jetty. The prices are very reasonable
and the food is decent ( fish & chips,
burgers, salad rolls etc…)

But do not do that because people have
died doing that!

9. Discovery
centre
• Enjoy a 20 minute viewing and interpretive
session with the Little Penguins at the
Discovery centre hosted by a DEC ranger.
You will learn all about the biology, natural
behaviours, habitat and conservation of
these fascinating creatures. A fun and
interesting activity for students of all ages.

10. Star PENGUINS
• Currently there are 10 little penguins that are the
star attractions at the Discovery Centre. The boss
of the group is Piggy (named for his healthy
appetite!) whose life long partner is Gerry (the
only female of the group). They are proud parents
to the youngest pair Nemo and Sassy. Jojo, Skip,
Lou, Peri, Pengu and Sedge make up the rest of
the group who have been badly injured, orphaned
as chicks or born in captivity - it is unlikely that
they would survive in the wild. So come and give
them some love.

11. activites
• Swim with wild dolphins
• Feed the penguins
• Dolphin watching
• A glass bottom boat cruise
• And lots more so come down to Penguin
Island(45 minutes out of Perth). It will be
relaxing and peaceful.
