There are many colonies around the island. Lusitania Bay boasts around
250,000 pairs of King Penguins and Sandy Bay has a good sized and accessible
Royal colony (providing you have permission to land). |

visit the Island, the Klebnikov visits once a year as does the Bremen.
Most of the trips are on the Akademik Shokalski operated by Southern Heritage
