Beschrijving
Penguin Island is located in Shoalwater Islands Marine Park and is home to a colony of Little Penguin. It is a 'must visit' birding location in summer.
As well as breeding Little Penguin, birders can also observe up to 1000 breeding Bridled Tern. Buff-banded Rail occasionally approach visitors closely on the picnic area lawns.
A well laid out 'loop' boardwalk provides access to two lookouts offering spectacular coastal views. Beaches can be accessed at both the front and rear of the Island.
