Each morning we have walked into breakfast to be greeted with this misty view of the ocean.\u00a0 It’s like something out of a movie.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On our last day we had two more excursions, as well as a hike along the local beach adjacent to Southern Ocean Lodge.\u00a0 First up was a trip to Flinders Chase National Park, about 20 minutes from the lodge.\u00a0 Here is our super-guide Nick explaining the flora and fauna from this area of the park known as Bunker Hill.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This spot was called Bunker Hill due to the military keeping an outpost here during WWII.\u00a0 It does have a great vantage point!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our next stop was along the rugged coast near Cape Du Couedic Lighthouse.\u00a0 The swells were pretty big!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

An extensive boardwalk system leads you closer to the water.\u00a0 You could have sat here and watched the surf for hours.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There were seals everywhere!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This group of baby seals were all playing together in a tide pool below the boardwalk.\u00a0 Sorry for the lame video…it was pretty far away from the boardwalk.<\/p>\n
