Penguin Beach A visit to the beautiful Penguin beach, while staying in one of the luxurious holiday cottages is a great idea.

You will also observe penguins even on the visitor's bridle path at the "Penguin Crossing".
There are also some young Macaroni penguins at the beach as well as a few sea ducks.
Macaroni Penguin Penguins will surely astound your kids.
One variety of this bird is very noticeable and stands out from the rest.
These are the Macaroni Penguins.
The Macaroni penguin is big and has a golden yellow crown and lives in the rock-strewn areas and sometimes in the water.
African Penguin Perhaps, the main attraction within the Penguin Beach is the African penguin.
The African penguin is relatively small and makes a very inimitable sound-like that of the strident noise created by a donkey.
More than a hundred of this kind can be found at Penguin Beach.
If this is the first time you will see this kind of penguin, you surely be amazed.
Bank Cormorant Within the Penguin Beach is another popular attraction for the children and families-the Bank Cormorant.
These wonderful birds are bred in South Africa.
This type is now considered as one of the endangered species in the world.
The Bank Cormorant is an outstandingly gorgeous bird with turquoise eyes and a black bill.
The sight of this bird will bring joy to kids during your Torquay holidays.
