Boulders Beach is located a few kilometres to the south of Simon's Town, in the direction of Miller's Point.
Here small coves and beaches are interspersed between boulders of Cape granite.
There has been a colony of African penguins at Boulders Beach since 1985.
There is no record of the birds having lived here prior to that date.
There are only three penguin populations on the mainland in southern Africa; the others are close to Hermanus at Stoney Point and Betty's Bay.
