It is located on the eastern side of the Cape Peninsula, in Simon's Town, in the southern region of Cape Town, South Africa. It is also commonly known as Boulders Bay. The beach is a popul

ar tourist spot because of a colony of the endemic and critically endangered African penguins (Spheniscus demersus) which settled there in 1982. Boulders Beach forms part of the Table Mountain National Park.
