Seal Sanctuary

Right next to the Carpinteria Bluffs is a protected beach where a large rookery of seals lives. It was quite a site seeing maybe 200 seals hanging out on the beach. The trail takes you to an overlook directly above where they hang out so you can see (and smell) them. There is a person from a local group that works to protect the seals hanging out to answer questions and make sure people are respectful (or maybe just listen to his IPod while watching the sunset). Anyhow it was quite a sight and got Braedyn quite excited, even though he wasn't allowed to chuck rocks over the edge at them.
