Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Seal Bay is famous for its huge population of rare animals, the Australian sea lions, the only place in Australia where visitors can get up close and personal with seals on the beach. Since 1803, there have been ecological records here. In the first half of the 20th century, shark fishing boats arbitrarily killed sea lions and seals as bait for killing sharks. Because of the underwater reefs near Seal Bay, sea boats cannot get close to them. , the Australian sea lions here survived. In 1954, with the establishment of the Seal Bay Water Reserve, the sea lions on the island can settle down safely and reproduce. At present, there are about 600 sea lions here. They are very human. For tourists walking among them, they behave quite generously. When facing the camera of tourists, they will pose and present a vivid picture to tourists very cooperatively. picture.

Then there is Seal Bay. This is the face value of Kangaroo Island. It is the most worthwhile place to come, because you can observe the wild sea lions up close. You are not wrong. Although it is called Seal Bay, it is actually a sea lion. But don’t say that I can’t see what’s the difference. It should be almost the same. There are two kinds of tickets, one is to go to the plank road to see, this is cheaper, one is explained, this is more expensive, I suggest that since I have come, I still find a explanation, so that I can go down to the beach, away from the sea lion It’s only ten meters away, so it’s interesting. Otherwise, only go to the plank road to see, there is only one viewing platform, you can see not many sea lions, there is an explanation of 32 adults, 20 children, in fact, not much expensive, I think it is acceptable, of course, overall it is really painful. The sea lion is very cute, watching various performances, I think this ticket is still worth it.
Kangaroo Island Seal Bay is a beautiful bay, named for the many Australian seals that live in it. There is a special seal museum in the bay, you can visit. The seals here are really lazy, and they pass by them and they ignore them, really upright.
You'll know by name, come play, thief fun
You can see posters in this water.
Seal Bay is my favorite attraction on Kangaroo Island because I am an animal lover. In fact, there are no seals in Seal Bay, they are all sea lions, seals are just the general name of that kind of animal. First arrive at the visitor center, and there are staff to explain the sea lion and the park. Then follow the nurse into the seal bay, everyone in a long line, according to the nurse's command, for fear of alarm on the side of the road sleeping sea lions, after all, this is their territory. Arriving on the beach of Seal Bay, you will see countless sea lions basking on the beach, which are very cute to lie down. From time to time, there are sea lions who come back from the sea for food. They climb ashore step by step. One of them climbs the stairs. It looks so cute. We have to wait for it to climb up and return to the visitor center. The nurse explained the whole process, which was very intimate.
