Cornish Seal Sanctuary Invites Visitors for February Half Term Adventures

This February half term, the Cornish Seal Sanctuary is opening its doors to families and friends looking for an engaging and educational day out. Nestled in the heart of Cornwall, the sanctuary is renowned for its commitment to the rescue, rehabilitation, and release of seal pups found along the coastline.

Visitors to the sanctuary this season will have the unique opportunity to meet the latest cohort of seal pups being nursed back to health in the sanctuary’s hospital. The Animal Care Team at the sanctuary is eager to share insights into the meticulous care and rehabilitation process these adorable pups undergo before they are returned to their natural habitat.

Adding an element of fun to the educational experience, the sanctuary is hosting a ‘Guess the Weight of the Pup’ competition. This playful contest invites guests to estimate the weight of a nominated seal pup, with the chance to win exciting prizes for accurate guesses.

The sanctuary promises more than just seal watching. Guests are invited to enjoy a range of onsite amenities, including hot snacks and delicious hot chocolates available at the café. A leisurely stroll through Secret Creek offers a delightful encounter with the sanctuary’s newest additions, a pair of baby beavers settling into their environment.

Beyond aquatic life, the sanctuary is home to a variety of animals. From long-term seal residents like Ray to paddocks filled with rare breed sheep and four playful Pygmy goats, the Cornish Seal Sanctuary offers a glimpse into a diverse animal kingdom.

The Cornish Seal Sanctuary is enthusiastic about welcoming visitors of all ages this half term. With a mission to educate the public about marine conservation while providing a sanctuary for marine animals, the sanctuary promises a memorable day out for families, friends, and animal lovers alike.

Tickets for the sanctuary are available for booking through their official website, ensuring visitors can secure their spot for this unique blend of education, conservation, and fun.
