Overstrand Penguin Campaign

Where is Blue off to?

Sometimes a penguin needs to spread its wings, so to speak. As such Blue is leaving her ‘island’ of the Great White House and heading off to the Hermanus Whale Festival (27 - 29 September 2019) where she joins the team of the Dyer Island Conservation Trust/Marine Dynamics who will share the tale of her endangered feathered friends and other marine life. Here the children can be scientists and match shark fins or whale callosities, and hear more about marine pollution, the penguins, and sharks in short talks. So do come say hello then head to Gansbaai to meet the other seven special penguins.

Blue quite likes Hermanus so she is staying to attend the Mayoral Awards on Thursday night (3 Oct). In fact, the Mayor recently popped by to say hello to Blue! Good luck to all the finalists for the Awards.

Blue is going to be joined for the evening by good friends Dee Liscious from Blue Goose and Misti from Gansbaai Tourism.

There’s no denying that we are pretty hot stuff.

For more information on Blue, please contact Marine Dynamics directly.
