Seal Bay
With its unspoiled wilderness and stunning beauty, it is no surprise that Kangaroo Island (KI) is consistently in South Australia’s top ten tourist destinations, as voted on Trip Advisor. And no trip to KI is complete without a visit to Seal Bay.
Seal Bay has been home to an Australian sea lion population for thousands of years, and offers one of the most exceptional nature-based experiences in the world.
Set your own pace on the wheelchair accessible 900 metre (return) boardwalk which meanders through the dunes to a number of viewing platforms.
Boardwalk Tour
A visit to Seal Bay gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the beautiful surrounds of this colony – white sands, blue skies, unspoiled vistas – to learn about the endangered sea lions from our very experienced guides, at a safe distance.
Location
