Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge and The Friends
The Seal Beach National Wildlife Refuge is part of the extensive San Diego
National Wildlife Refuge Complex and is located within the Seal Beach Naval
Weapons Station.
The Refuge's tidal salt marsh, encompassing 965 acres of the Anaheim Bay
estuary, serves as a wildlife sanctuary on an increasingly crowded coast as
well as providing a critical migration stopover and wintering habitat for
thousands of birds that migrate up and down the Pacific flyway each year.
The protected areas of Seal Beach NWR provide habitat for resident wildlife as
well as an excellent venue for environmental education. The Refuge provides
a home for the endangered Least Tern, the Light-footed Clapper Rail, and the
Belding's Savannah Sparrow.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, in cooperation with the Navy, operates a
Nature Center on the Refuge.
