SEA LIONS
Can you find the small dark spot in the ocean? That's a group of sea lions! What are they doing?
A group of sea lions in water is called a RAFT - what a great name! These sea lions do
look like a floating raft! A group on land is called a colony.
These sea lions are trying to regulate their body temperature. They bunch together and
put their tails in the air!
Fishing boat out on the water...
Another amazing ocean view!

On a clear day you can see 70 miles of coastline and 37 miles out to
sea. It's a great whale watching site! Our best whale watching was
near Boiler Bay and the gray whales were only 200 yards from shore
at times! Love it!
