Sit quietly at a respectful distance from a haul-out of elephant seals and fur seals at Ship Harbour, a spot far fewer visitors reach on a short call.
What to expect
A flattish walk from the jetty leads to a shingle beach where southern elephant seals bask and occasionally spar, with fur seals working the surf line nearby. Because it's a short detour from the main path, most groups skip it entirely in favour of the albatross colony.
Booking
We have not yet verified a bookable operator and price for this one.
Good to know
Give haul-outs a wide, quiet berth; elephant seals can move surprisingly fast if startled. Best in the austral spring/summer breeding season.
