Set in the beautiful village of Gweek, the Cornish seal sanctuary is a charity that rescues and rehabilitates grey seal pups from around the coastline.
Each season they rescue over 70 malnourished or damaged seal pups, including the grey seals, as well as some common seals, and patagonian sea-lions. When visiting, you can experience wonderful marine mammals up close and personal and learn about their individual stories.
It’s also hometown a variety of other animals, such as penguins, sheep, ponies and goats that need protection.
