Programme Key Highlights:
Ocean Network Express Penguin Cove – Penguin cove features one of the world’s largest sub-Antarctic, cold salt-water habitats for penguins. The water and air temperature in this enclosure are constantly maintained at a low of 8 degrees celcius. This cove also hosts an array of special lighting that mimics the changes in day length in the different seasons – all to stimulate the natural habitat of the penguins mimicking Macquarie Island. There are 4 species of penguins you can find here; the Gentoo, Humboldt, King and Northern Rockhopper Penguins.
