After the sun sets, they swim back to the shore from the sea and walk back to their nests in a swaying line. This magnificent migration is called the Penguin Parade! You will sit in the open-air viewing platform built along the coast with tourists from all over the world under the guidance of the management staff, waiting for the penguins to return home.
