Photo Gallery

This property has numerous cozy rooms and is a great choice for families and big groups. This building can be big enough for up to 60 people at any given time. People can expect to see wild flowers, water birds and some native animals on their doorsteps, which will completely depend on the season.

Adjacent to the Seal Bay Cabins is the Seal Bay Café, which is formerly known as the Kaiwarra Food Barn. This is a fully authorized restaurant and can seat up to around 230 people. There are plenty of meals available throughout the day. The rural ambiance of this restaurant provides the ideal venue to relax in after a long trip. One can choose from a variety of meals including baguettes, seafood dishes, homemade food, drinks (even alcoholic ones) and several scrumptious desserts.  There is a gift shop, barbeque area, picnic area, garden, souvenir displays and children’s playground available to visitors. This restaurant opened back in 1990 and accepts all major credit cards.

The most famous landmark in this area is the Seal Bay Conservation Park. One’s trip to Kangaroo Island is not complete without visiting this park. The travelers would be able to watch sea lions on the stretch of the beach. People can join a guided tour to view these Australian sea lions up close while the animals are in their natural habitat. Tourists would be able to delightfully see these animals take care of their pups, rest and play on the sandy beach after being at sea. This would be the same as watching an interesting documentary unfold in front of the people’s eyes.

The tourists of Seal Bay can stroll along the 400-meter pathway to the viewing platform. One would be able to see a Humpback whale’s skeleton that is more often than not noticeable from the boardwalk. The pathway and the viewing platform offer fantastic opportunities for visitors to hang back, watch the sea lions surf the waves, and simply take pleasure in the striking coastal scenery. The entrance tickets for the conservation park can be bought from the Seal Bay Visitor Information Centre and this is where tourists can also look around for souvenirs and other gift items. The access to the colony of the sea lion and the beach is only through a guided tour.
