Today we were joined by our first Marine Dynamics Academy’s intern for 2021, Maik. Welcome

Whilst they were keeping close to the island the seals that were in the water were very playful


There are a large amount of Cape Fur seals pups on the Island much to our guests delight


We were lucky enough to spot a lone African penguin on Dyer Island hiding amongst the cormorants
