Boulder Beach is a rocky beach on the Pacific Ocean, located on the south side of Otago Peninsula, some 15.7 kilometres (9.8 mi) by road east from central Dunedin, New Zealand. In addition to being relatively difficult to access physically due to the steepness of the surrounding country, it is closed to the public in the summer months (November–February) to protect the yellow-eyed penguins that nest on it.
