Parque de Conservação de Seal Bay
Walk the beach among a wild colony of endangered Australian sea lions with an expert ranger.
About Seal Bay Conservation Park
Seal Bay is one of the few places in the world where you can walk on a beach among a wild colony of endangered Australian sea lions — an experience that quietly leaves most visitors changed.
Ranger-guided beach tours bring you close to mothers, pups and sparring males with strict respect-distance protocols, while a self-guided boardwalk gives elevated views over the entire colony.
