🦭 Grey Seal pup alert! 🦭

We finally discovered our very first Grey Seal pup of the season today, right up the coast near Dowlaw but it’s a start!

We won’t have them on the main reserve until early November but that first one is always good to see! It comes three days later than last years first arrival.

We’ll keep you up to date with all things seal including when our first events will be (usually around mid-November)

Seal season 2026 is underway!!
