Walking along
the shore-line on rocks between about a half and two meters
above sea-level puts you in a great position to see into the
crystal clear water and more importantly, to see the seals
that are swimming and playing about in the sea. These are young
and very playful sub-adults. The great thing about this situation
is that you can get really close to the seals, almost as close
as you can get at the zoo without even trying. Squat down and
they carry on playing as if you're not even there.
There are few
animals that seem to enjoy playing in the water quite as much
as young fur seals do.
