One of the stops on our last day was at the Seal Bay Conservation Park, a 45 minute drive from Kingscote. Beach access to the colony of Australian Sea Lions is by guided tour only along a 800-metre boardwalk. The Sea Lions are in their natural environment of coastal vegetation, dunes and beach. Whilst on the beach, the group had to maintain a fair distance from the sea lions, which would have been about 20 metres. For those not wanting to access the beach, there is also a self guided walk along another boardwalk to a large viewing platform to observe the sea lions surfing the waves or sunning themselves on the beach.
Thanks for visiting,
Sue.
The seals are adorable. Nice pictures.
