Wilsons Promontory – Sealers Cove is a 19.3km, grade 3 Return hike located in Wilsons Promontory National Park Victoria. The hike should take approximately 1-2 days to complete.

Summary

Sealers Cove is a picturesque, circular cove boasting glassy turquoise water, golden sand and a shady campground. Sealers Cove is accessible via the Telegraph Saddle to Sealers Cove Track. Sealers Cove is also accessible as part of an extended Southern Prom Hike (refer to the Overnight Hikes park note in the Related Documents section below). There is a campground and toilets at Sealers Cove.

Important Note

Make sure you check the tide times if you intend camping overnight as you have to cross Sealers Creek, which is subject to tidal flow, before reaching the camp site. The depth of the creek can vary between 200mm through to 1.5m deep at high tide.

Overnight hike for kids

This makes an excellent overnight hike for kids as it is not too long, traverses extremely varied terrain with no real steep sections to tire them out. Thye best part is that once you have set up camp they can play in the creek or along the beach.
