Cape fur seals sunning themselves on the dock in Cape Town's working harbour, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, South Africa

---

Cape fur seals sunbathe in the heart of Cape Town's working harbour, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. It is unusual to get a close view of seals, as offshore islands are their preferred breeding grounds. A colony of Cape fur seals are however a familiar sight resting on the seal landing in the Clock Tower Precinct next to the original Bertie's Landing Restaurant and on old tyres lining the quaysides around the Waterfront. They are an integral part of harbour life and Capetonians are fortunate enough to have these seals living in such close proximity.
