    Overview

    Seal Island is an islet off the northwest coast of Anguilla. Coral reefs separate it from the mainland, with the reef system itself being designated as a marine park. Multiple species of marine life lie in the reefs, which include species of turtle, reef fish, and Panulirus guttatus often being fished for. The reef has received some damage due to factors such as fishing impacts, though the island itself still attracts tourists due to its location for snorkeling and scuba diving.
