Harbour seals, also known as common seals, are the smaller of the UK’s two seal species, though their name can be misleading - they’re not as common as you might think. In fact, current estimates give their numbers at 55,000 - a third of the number of grey seals around Britain’s shores.
These charming creatures spend much of their time lounging on beaches, rocks, and sandbanks, but they’re also strong swimmers, often seen gliding through coastal waters. Each harbour seal has a unique pattern of spots on its coat, making it possible to tell individuals apart.
In British folklore, they were believed to be selkies - mythical creatures that could transform into humans. Today, their curious and playful nature makes them a much-loved symbol of coastal wildlife.
This solitary harbour seal lies amongst seaweed and rocks, looking right at the camera with what seems like a contented smile on its face. Its sleek, spotted coat and relaxed posture make it hard not to be charmed by this adorable creature. Whether it’s just finished a swim or simply soaking up the peaceful surroundings, this harbour seal perfectly embodies the calm beauty of UK wildlife.
Enhance your space with this cheerful seal in a wall art print, or enjoy its smiling face every day on a mug or greeting card!

Excellent Print arrived - High Quality - Very professional - Correspondence with Carol was helpful & informative. Would highly recommend Realworldart.
Wonderful card that was delivered quickly and exceptional service. Will definitely buy more in the future.
I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
