No, technically penguins cannot fly. Penguins are birds, so they do have wings. However, the wing structures of penguins are evolved for swimming, rather than flying in the traditional sense.

∙ 12y agoThe Puffin isn't a penguin. But unlike most penguins the puffin can fly. It uses its stubby little wings to lift of the ground. The puffin can fly between the speeds of 44-58 mph but most of the time it stays on the ground. It's wing speed can each up to 400 beats per second {bps}. That's fast enough that sometimes the wings are a blur and the puffin looks like a little football soaring through the air.
