Did you know you can visit the African Penguin & Seabird Sanctuary in Kleinbaai at no cost?

Come and see rescued penguins and seabirds up close as they recover and get ready to go back to the wild.

Open daily: 9am - 4pm

Feeding time (public viewing): 3 pm daily

Learn about how we care for these amazing birds and how you can help protect them.

We’re also working on a new South African Seabird Centre, an extension of the sanctuary. It will have fun and educational displays about seabirds, their lives, and why they matter.

You can support this project by visiting, spreading the word, or donating here.

Come visit, learn, and be part of the story of saving our seabirds!
