To the amusement of the onlooking tourists, the seal began to slowly waddle along the pristine beach until it dropped to the ground and started to roll again.
Ms Laughlin said she quickly whipped out her phone to catch the adorable marine mammal in action.
Kangaroo Island’s Seal Bay is home to the third largest colony of sea lions with 800-odd colonies roaming around the open beaches.
Seal Bay has no cages or enclosures which provides tourists with an exclusive experience to observe the endangered animals interact with their pups, fish, surf and rest along the sand.
The heartwarming video that emerged online on April 7 has pulled at the heartstrings of viewers.
