Plenty of sea lions. They were very relaxed and tired when we were there. There is also a bird hide to get a good view. We went in the morning and didn’t see any penguins.

Waited around an hour to see the penguins but wasn't disappointed, little guy hopped out of the ocean at around 6:30PM. Take your patience and some binoculars and you're in for a treat!
