[VIC] Free Registration for Penguin Viewing at St Kilda Breakwater @ Parks Victoria via Eventbrite

190

Hey all, this is a bit of a PSA. But if you like penguins, you can register for a free penguin viewing time slot at the St Kilda breakwater thanks to Parks Victoria. It was closed for most of 2020 because of COVID, but now open again for free ticketed entry. Enjoy :)

      Hmm.. I wonder why they wouldn’t want a heap of people crowd around and try to see some penguins??

    • Well you could try, but the crowds were crazy big.

  • So is this worth doing? (Sydney person here). I’ll be in Melbourne in a couple of weeks time.

      If you want to watch penguins yes, but ive personally come to realise these penguins should be left to their own devices.

    • I’ve been to both the St Kilda and Phillip Island penguin experiences, and I felt that the Phillip Island one was better, both for viewing the penguins and respecting the penguins’ space.

      If you can make it to Phillip Island, I would, and remember that the penguins nest under the boardwalk so you can get quite close views there. If you go to St Kilda, go early if you want a good view and expect to see fewer penguins.

      Just be respectful of them and let the volunteers know of anyone who isn’t.

      • Snitches gets stitches… Just kidding

  • I'm living in Elwood now and lived for 7 years right on St Kilda Esplanade and never seen the penguins, so thanks OP, got some tix :)

      Have you ever seen kangaroos? Totally worth going out from Elwood once.
