Cornwall Family Life POV
Our Honest Family Perspective on Cornish Seal Sanctuary
We love visiting the Seal Sanctuary, this place is perfect for kids who love the outdoors and animals in particular. We absolutely love the work they do here to care for seals who have been injured or washed up in Cornish storms. One of favourite animals to see are the new Puffins which are so much fun to watch zipping around underwater.
