Reviews: Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony Penguin Night Viewing (Standard/VIP Stands)
Guest User2025-11-04
There were many visitors, and many penguins were returning to their nests tonight. The penguins returned in two directions: most went towards the VIP seating area, while a small number went towards the regular seating area. However, those going towards the regular seating area simply crossed the seats, some even running around our feet, allowing for close observation. We sat down at 8 PM and waited about 40 minutes before the penguins returned. We sat until 10 PM, finally getting tired and leaving on their own, though some penguins were still on their way back. There were probably several hundred tonight. On the way to get our car outside, we saw many penguins by the roadside and in the grass, which was quite amusing. Photography was not allowed; we had to remain quiet. The order stated ticket check-in was at 7:45 PM, but we arrived at 6:30 PM and were still able to exchange our tickets and explore. I recommend arriving early, before dark, to see many other animals and take photos. I'm dissatisfied with the two different prices on Ctrip; isn't that deceiving customers?★

The waddling penguins were adorable, and the scene was very quiet; everyone was intently watching the penguins go home.
