The Australian Sea Lion is the only sea lion native solely to Australia.
With a population of between 9 300 to 11 700, ranging from the Abrolhos Islands in Western Australia to The Pages off the South Australian Coast they are among the rarest of the world's seal species.
The largest population in Western Australia is found around Beagle Island near Leeman. Today sea lion numbers are slowly increasing and all offshore islands in Western Australia with sea lion colonies are nature reserves.
Visitation to these islands is restricted to allow for minimum disturbance to these friendly and fascinating marine mammals.
