African Penguin's of Boulders Beach South Africa

Did you know there are penguins who love the sun and surf?

The African penguin is also called the Black-footed Penguin and the Jack-Ass Penguin (because he brays like a donkey). Now 18,000 strong on Boulders Beach South Africa.

    I always think of ice and snow when I think of penquins. It seems weird to see them relaxing on a warm beach.

    Fabulous photos. I wrote an article about the penguins and Simon's Town, too, in recent months. When we were liveaboard cruisers we had our sailboat in the marina there for many weeks. Wasn't it fabulous? Thanks for bringing back those happy memories.

    Oh, how adorable they are! Much safer to be around also compared to those elephants that chased you!
