This is New Zealand's largest seal colony found in the North island. It is located about 100 km from Wellington, and even though I couldn't find where seals with their puppies gathered, I could observe a group of 5 of them just basking away from the overcrowed colony. They seem pretty peaceful and clumpsy, but you should never position yourself between them and the sea, as they could feel harassed and bite you.
