Willis Walk links Foxy Beach and Boulders Beach so you do not have to return to the street. The scenic pathway winds through indigenous fynbos and milkwood thickets.

Keep an eye out for penguins on the trail. They often cross the timber walkway, and you must always give them the right of way.

A road winds along the edge of a rocky cliff beside the deep blue sea.

The Connecting Boardwalk

650 meters15-25 minutes

This 650-meter pathway safely connects the two main sections of the Boulders Penguin Colony. It routes through native coastal scrubland rather than the public road. Walking this stretch takes 15 to 25 minutes. Watch your step, as penguins frequently cross the path right in front of visitors.
