The first bay was ok, 2 big boys just chilling but then I walked to the end of the beach and a person notified me of another bay up a small track where they're was about 8 lazing and a few having a scrap. Would recommend ✊️

Great little bay for a walk, saw several lounging sea lions! Can be quite exposed and chilly.

Very pretty beach but we went at the wrong time of year for sealions apparently. The gravel road gets very tight and narrow for the last 6 kilometres.

Were hitchhiking and a local took us for a drive on this beach. Opened the window and had a conversation with a HUGE sea lion and a small seal. It was mostly me talking, but still... I could tell they loved it too!

Fur seals, sea lions and few people. The vistas are scenic on Long White Beach.

Took a break from driving, went for a walk along the beach at cannibal bay and quite literally tripped over a fur seal sleeping on the beach!
