Additional Information

Around 3,000 seals live in this area. This makes for great diving as the seals can be very interactive. Other than wreck of Abyssinia, which is very nice with two large boilers and various wreckage, it is really only worth diving for the seals. Lots of kelp in the area. Depth can be kept shallow at 5-10M, possibly 15-20m if needed. Diving with the seals is an amazing experience.
