Sightseeing
The little penguins on this island are exclusive to the area. You can take a picnic over and swim in the calm waters. Great for snorkeling. Watch the penguin feeding or upgrade your experience with a tour of the islands in a glass bottom boat. Dolphins are a regular experience.
Prices are quite steep for the tour but the island visit isn't too expensive.

Activities
If you want an up close and personal experience with the animals, this little zoo should not be passed up. Around a 30 minute drive from the apartment and close to Adventurescape, it's a whole day out. Visit the zoo then head to Adventurescape for a BBQ or take a picnic lunch.
