Seal Lookout is a short side trip from the main cape viewpoint, providing a closer angle down to the rocky platforms at the base of the cliffs. From here, seals can sometimes be spotted resting on the rocks or in the water below, though they may require careful viewing or binoculars to see clearly. This lookout also gives a striking perspective of the narrow dolerite ridge forming the cape as it drops into the ocean.
