International African Penguin Awareness Day at uShaka Marine World
Dress in black and white and join the celebration of International African Penguin Awareness Day at uShaka Marine World on Saturday.
This is particularly important for East Coasters as the endangered African penguin is ONLY found along the southern African coastline.
The African Penguin was classified as endangered in 2010 which coincided with the launch of the Penguin Awareness Campaign at uShaka Sea World.
These much loved penguins are an iconic species for marine conservation as they are an indicator species for the health of the oceans, so if they are in trouble, so are we!
Those decked out in penguin-friendly attire will gain entry into uShaka Sea World for just R99. So, pull out your favourite black pants, white shirts or vice versa. (The offer doesn’t apply to those who wear black and white dresses or just tops or pants in one of the specified colours.)
Details: 031 328 8000 or www.ushakamarineworld.co.za.
