Now, onwards into Week Three (and a bit. 😉 )
After reading “Red Rocks” I was inspired to visit the site and check out the seals. It is about a 50 minute brisk walk from the carpark, but well worth the trek.
Just make sure you pick a nice day, wear walking shoes that will be Ok on sand and pebbles, and check the weather forecast to be extra safe.
