Seal Bay is a bay, about 1 km across, on the rugged and exposed north coast of East Falkland in the Falkland Islands of the South Atlantic Ocean. It lies some 40 km north-west of Stanley. DescriptionThe valley behind the beach holds Swan Pond, a shallow wetland separated from the bay by a sandbar. The coastal vegetation consists of maritime heath and wet grassland overlying peat. Except on offshore stacks there is little remaining tussac.[1] Important Bird AreaSeal Bay has been identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area (IBA). Birds for which the site is of conservation significance include Falkland steamer ducks, ruddy-headed geese, gentoo penguins (1500 breeding pairs), southern rockhopper penguins (15,000 pairs), Magellanic penguins, sooty shearwaters and white-bridled finches. Imperial and rock shags are present.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url= http://www.birdlife.org |title= Seal Bay, East Falkland |accessdate=2012-10-19 |work= Important Bird Areas factsheet |first= |last= |publisher= BirdLife International |date= 2012}} {{Navboxes|list ={{Falkland Islands topics}} }}{{Coord|51|23|00|S|58|00|01|W|region:FK_type:landmark|display=title}}{{Falklands-geo-stub}} 4 : Bays of the Falkland Islands|Important Bird Areas of the Falkland Islands|Seabird colonies|East Falkland |
