Norma Landeros-Ramirez was just enjoying her honeymoon in Cape Town, South Africa. She was enjoying a romantic day at the beach with her new husband when she caught the penguins on camera. The penguins are a part of the Boulders Penguin Colony. When Norma spotted the heartwarming penguins, she instantly pulled out her phone to capture the adorable scene.

The two penguins emerged from the ocean like any other penguins in the colony. What happened next set them apart. As they started walking along the beach, they reached out their flippers to hold hands.

The cute penguins kept waddling away, but they never stopped holding hands. They looked just like a romantic couple going for a stroll along the beach.

Norma and her husband were incredibly lucky to see this adorable sight. They originally chose this honeymoon destination because of the penguins. Norma had heard that penguins mate for life, so it seemed like a fitting place for a honeymoon.

Since this adorable video was posted on YouTube, it has had more than 152,000 views. People around the world have been captivated by the cute pair.

While some people are surprised to see penguins in South Africa, it turns out that this is a fairly normal sight. African penguins live along the southwestern coast of the continent. There are penguin colonies on 24 different islands in the area. These colonies stretch from Namibia to Port Elizabeth, South Africa.

Unlike their colder cousins, the African penguin is used to warmer climates. From around the world, people have commented on this adorable video. In a world filled with chaos and fighting, it is heartwarming to see such love, respect and happiness. Some viewers have even expressed jealousy of the penguins because the penguins seem to have a better love life. This romantic couple has definitely found a true, lasting love together.
