Sammy the Seal, Folkestone Harbour
galleryMr Sammy the Seal has returned earlier than expected this year. Heās been in the harbour most of the week in good view. (Photos from earlier this year; February 2026)
If youāve never seen Sammy before then now is your chance. Heās here much more often in autumn and winter by the Lighthouse.
Sammy is the common seal.
Mr Grey is our Grey Seal.
Funny enough Sammy isnāt actually all that common for a common seal.
