Penguins in Tassie?

We're thinking of returning to Tassie next summer and I was wondering
if there were areas where we could see some penguins in the wild.

Specific information would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Penguins are found in the wild from the S coast of NSW southwards. Access to
them is controlled, and normally only allowed/encouraged where it can be
controlled - eg. Phillip Island in Victoria.

From the DIPWE of Tasmania website:

Little penguins can be seen at a number of locations around the State. If
you intend to go penguin watching, please read the penguin viewing
guidelines beforehand to ensure that you do not disturb these highly
sensitive birds.

Bruny Island (at the very narrow neck of land between the north and
south of the island)
Bicheno (east coast)
Low Head at the mouth of the Tamar River (north coast)
Lillico's Beach at Penguin (north west coast)

If you Google these locations + penguins I'm sure you will find more
information about viewing times etc..
