Meet Our Little Blue Penguins!

Meet the cheeky Little Blue Penguin crew here at SEA LIFE Sunshine Coast. Visit us and see them waddle, slide and swim around right in front of you.

Did You Know?

They have a bluish colour unique among all species of penguins. Chicks have a brown and white plumage that turns to the blue colour after their first molt.

Little Penguins live along the southern edge of mainland Australia, as well as Tasmania, New Zealand and the Chatham Islands.

Little blue penguins are mainly nocturnal and unlike larger species, they can dive only to a depth of 230 feet for approximately 35 seconds.
