About Seal Island

Seal Island, located roughly 5.7 km off Cape Town’s False Bay, is a rugged granite outcrop about 800 m long and 50 m wide, rising only 4–6 m above sea level It hosts over 60,000 Cape fur seals in dense breeding colonies, making it one of the Western Cape’s largest seal congregations The island is also a hotspot for great white sharks, which patrol the surrounding waters and often breach dramatically to capture seals . Though once used for guano collection and briefly hosting a WWII radar mast, it now remains uninhabited by humans except for occasional scientific visits. Seal Island stands as a raw, dynamic example of marine predator–prey ecosystems, drawing wildlife enthusiasts and photographers alike
