The national park boasts about 40 miles of varied and protected coastline. Along the coasts are stretches of golden sand with outcrops of gigantic boulders that are home to a colony fur seals. You definitely do not want to go ashore as the boats feature comfortable seats with great views on upper and lower decks.
