Wildlife on Dunedin’s Doorstep

The Otago Peninsula extends 30 kilometres from Dunedin into the Pacific — supporting royal albatross (the only mainland breeding colony in the world), yellow-eyed penguins, blue penguins, fur seals, and sea lions. Wildlife tours visit the albatross colony at Taiaroa Head, the penguin viewing hides, and the seal rookeries with naturalist guides.
