Incredible day! - Lots of bad reviews recently so I almost didn’t do a tour and I’m so glad I still went for it. Such an incredible day! Saw lots of dolphins, pelicans and sealions as well as various bird species. Obviously wildlife viewing is never guaranteed as they are wild and free and go where they please, but they are about and chances are you will see something! We got lucky and saw so much. The captain (Aaron) and tour guide (Isla) were lovely, knowledgable and respectful of the wildlife we encountered. The guided walk was also very interesting. A definite MUST SEE when in this area. Highly recommend. Money spent on visiting this island helps the endangered tiny penguin population, so it’s money well spent! You may not see the penguins as they are out at sea most of the day but you may get lucky. It’s all part of the fun.

We had friends over from England and they wanted to go here. They really enjoyed it and we saw what they said what we we - Very good and worth it saw everything even dolphins. The weather was great the staff was very helpful and informative. Would recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic trip - definitely recommended - Fantastic trip - definitely recommended! Amazing sights - pelicans flying low overhead, terns darting around us, big lizards and fluffy headed baby Fairy Penguin - on this beautiful, unspoilt island. The volunteers and staff were delightful - informative, friendly and super helpful. Thank you for the best day of our trip!

Interesting experience - Very good, cooler day for walking, heaps of different birds to photograph, saw the sea lions and dolphins, although dolphins not jumping

Disappointed - No penguins, disappointed , not worth $85 , lovely to see a dolphin but nothing on the island to do can’t even buy a cool drink

Failure of glass bottom boat penguin Island - It was very disappointing. The glass bottom boat is not true. It has to small perspex sections in it and they are dirty and scratched. Unable to see anything as the vessel doesn't only stops twice and very short periods. People fell asleep on the trip as it was so boring. It's far from international standards that I have been on in the past.

Not worth the money. - The island should be called bird or pelican NOT penguin, there was not 1 in site & from what the tour guide said there hasn't been many at all of late due to it being the wrong season for them but also their numbers have dropped over past years due to human interaction. Which then brings me to a point of is the tourist dollar worth losing a species of wildlife?

Not worth the cost. - I would not be able to recommend this trip. As many have pointed out, you can no longer see penguins on Penguin Island. It feels dishonest to not disclose this on the website or prior to purchasing tickets. It should be called Seagull Poo island as that is a more accurate description of what we experienced. Beach was also filled with seaweed and smelt horrible. Saw a bird on a rock during the “cruise.” That was it. I understand it’s not their fault if the wild animals aren’t out for viewing, so I can’t complain about that aspect of it but overall the cost of the entire experience does not reflect the quality of the experience at all. It’s time to change it up… hopefully whoever runs this is listening to the feedback

Don’t waste your money !! - Disappointed! Do not waste your time and money ! Did not see any dolphin or penguins ! Saw 1 sea lion 400 ms away . Please read the fine prints on their page . Employees told us that you will not see any penguins when we were on the penguin island .

Disappointed trip - Went to Penguin Island for what we thought would be a lovely trip, well the boat cruise was good even though we didn't find any dolphins. Then got to Penguin Island and thought right time to sit and have some food. Well that was very disappointing as there was no picnic tables, All there was, was the grass. Not good for people who have mobility problems. Well that is me. I can't sit on the grass as I wouldn't be able to get back up. So what are people supposed to do with mobility problems, eat standing up. Not at all disability friendly there anymore. Won't be returning.
