★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Just plain beautiful, peaceful and a real ferling of calm.
A few seals around at this time of year but just leave them alone and give them space and enjoy nature at its best

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Saw four pretty sea lions here. Very cute and interested in people. But remember that we need to keep our distance from them to give them space.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Otago is famous for the wild life. Allan's Beach is no exception. I have seen seals flee panic stricken at the first sight of a primate (human) at other beaches. Here the sea lions own the place. They don't appear bothered at all by humans. They look quite contented. Department of Conservation advised humans to stay 10 metres away, to let the sea lions have some space and peace.
It was difficult when you walk on the track to the beach from the car park which is less than 5 minutes walk. The sea lion was sleeping peacefully on the track and I was half a metre from it. He went back to sleep and I silently crept around the sea lion to leave him in peace. I was more shocked and surprised by the encounter than the sea lion!
The beach is spectacular and the scenery stunning! I have to give 5 stars because it doesn't get any better than this.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice beach crowded with wild sea lives, but make sure to prepare enough time if you intend to walk the entire beach as it turned out to be way bigger than it first appeared to us. Also be advised that the footpath at the end of the beach which looks accessible on the map actually goes through an entire farm where cattle run free.
