update (07 March 2025): Water supply at the Boulders Penguin Colony in Table Mountain National Park, Cape Town has been restored. All facilities are now fully operational.
South African National Parks (SANParks) has announced that the Boulders Penguin Colony in Table Mountain National Park, Cape Town, is currently experiencing a water supply disruption due to a burst pipe in the Simon’s Town area. As a result, the ablution facilities are temporarily out of service. The City of Cape Town is on-site and has closed the waterline to carry out necessary repairs. Updates will follow as the situation develops.
The Boulders Penguin Colony is one of Cape Town's most iconic attractions, located near Simon’s Town. It is home to a thriving colony of African penguins (Spheniscus demersus), a species classified as endangered due to threats such as habitat loss, overfishing, and pollution.
