What is the best time of day to see blue penguins?
During the day, penguins like to stay in their nests, or go fishing at sea. The best time to see them is after sunset, when they return home.
Can I see penguins in Dunedin without a tour?
Do you need to take a tour? Yes, as access to the beach where the penguins land is blocked an hour or so before sunset (they arrive home from sea at dusk). You may see them in other places around Dunedin but it wouldn't be anything like this experience.
Where can I see yellow-eyed penguins in Dunedin?
Aside from Penguin Place, another spot worth checking out is Pilots Beach at Taiaroa Head on the Otago Peninsula, where you can often spot both yellow-eyed penguins and little blue penguins. If you're keen to dive deeper into penguin sightings and conservation efforts, though, Penguin Place Dunedin is a must-do.
