Seal spotting at Shag Point

Shag Point, just south of Moeraki and north of Dunedin, seems to give a rather good chance to spot a wild New Zealand fur seal, with some small chance to see yellow-eyed penguins and confirmed chance to see some sea bird called shag (thus the name Shag Point).

Beware though, I heard seals can rip a human apart from their horrendous teeths and snack on you for a few days before they finish you up.

Just joking. Make sure you keep your distance of about 10m from them as they are protected by law as endangered animals.
