What a lovely place. Magnificent views. We walk to the old section of the road which is now blocked cars off. We manage to get to the bottom of the beach, which is very risky (now that I think of it) as the lime stones are very soft.

Beautiful and magnificent coast line, but we haven’t saw any penguin here…. Just saw a small seal.

A - They are not Fairy Penguin, they are Little Penguin and
B - there are very few left there because of bloody foxes. If you do stand a chance to see any it will be at dawn or dusk in warmer weather such as late spring or summer

Unfortunately there are no more penguines left cause of pradetors. Very sad. But it is a beautiful spot looking out the ocean and the cliffs

Beautiful place and interesting rock formation. They have rock like Camel and Rhino. The nearby Shelly beach, finger point are also beautiful

A beautiful spot best visited at sunset. Lovely photo opportunities of the sun setting while you wait for the Penguins. There is a viewing platform to watch for the Penguins from. It helps to take a torch and to keep the noise down so the Penguins aren't scared to show themselves.

The visitor center told us there were only three penguins left after a fox decimated the colony. We saw two recently dead penguins

There are little penguins after dark, however, not many and hard to see. A good torch is a must, and the platform is helpful.

Sadly the penguins are gone, but still a beautiful place to visit and to stand on the southern most point of South Australia's mainland
