Pass By: Sandfly Bay Track, Seal Point Road Otago Peninsula area, Dunedin New Zealand
Its well worth taking a walk at Sandfly Bay. The track down to the lookout is an easy walk. From there down to the Bay itself, the track gets harder. If you do make it down to Sandfly Bay, you will most likely come across sea lions and seals. Please keep at least 10m away from them because they are fast!
