Swim lively Fur Seals

The open-type Fur Seals seal pool is home to South American fur seal.
You can observe the Fur Seals from above, relaxing on land and swimming and turning smoothly in the water. By sharing the same space as the Fur Seals rather than through an aquarium, you can get a close-up look at the lively Fur Seals swimming.

Fur Seal Tunnel

This tunnel allows you to peer down into the pool where the Fur Seals live, allowing you to enjoy the sight of the Fur Seals swimming gracefully in the sparkling water from various angles.
