This year, selecting days when the tide will be low early in the morning, the dates for the Great Annual West Coast Blue Penguin Count will be 21-27 October.
An early morning walk on your local beach could be just what you need and provide us with some helpful information as well.
We’re suggesting that you use the i-Naturalist app as it provides us the locations of any observations – that information is enormously helpful when contributing to planning and resource consent processes.
However, if you can’t do it during those dates, or would prefer to drop us a line with your findings, we’re delighted to receive your observations any time.

We look forward to hearing from you, so pop it in your diary, pick a fine day then enjoy your walk, perhaps take a friend, have fun, stay safe and help us out!
