About
About Cornish Seal Sanctuary
The sanctuary has been caring for seals for decades. Rescued pups are nursed back to health in its hospital and pools before being released back into the wild, while seals that cannot survive in the wild live here permanently.
As well as seals you can see other animals including sea lions, otters and penguins, and learn about marine conservation through talks and feeding times.
