Raggy Charters, which offers guided whale watching and African penguin watching cruises in South Africa, has launched a new “Penguin Patrol” day tour in Port Elizabeth.
The tour starts at 08h15 with a boat cruise into Algoa Bay. Guests are then taken to St Croix Island to see the penguins and will enjoy lunch at The Chartroom restaurant at the Algoa Bay Yacht Club.
After lunch, guests will visit SAMREC for a tour of the marine rehabilitation centre, with tea and cake at the Flying Penguin Café.
The final stop of the tour is at Bayworld Oceanarium and Museum, where guests will learn how important the captive breeding programme is for the survival of the penguins.
The cost of the tour is R1 450, which includes the boat trip, lunch, entrance into SAMREC and Bayworld, drinks and snacks at the Flying Penguin Café and all transport provided by Blunden Shuttles.
