Meet our King and Gentoo Penguins!
Be amazed at our King and Gentoo Penguins as they swoop and swoon through icy cold seawater. Antarctic Ice Adventure is the Southern Hemisphere's largest display of Sub-Antarctic penguin colony as well as being one of the most successful breeding programs on the planet!
Did You Know?
SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton's run a successful breeding program for both the King and Gentoo Penguins. During the breeding season the enclosure is a flurry of activity - especially from the Gentoo Penguins.
Gentoo Penguins use pebbles to find a mate and build their nests. During the courtship period, male and female penguins will scour the ice for the perfect pebble. Once found, they will take the pebble and present it to their sweetheart as a gift. If accepted and a partnership formed, they will continue to collect pebbles until a nest is formed.
