Gweek

Gweek (Cornish: Gwig, meaning forest village) is a village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated approximately three miles (5 km) east of Helston. Gweek is good spot to start exploring the area whether by land or water. These days the village is perhaps best known for the National Seal Sanctuary, where injured seals or pups seperated from their mothers are brought for treatment, rehabilitation and hopefully release. The sanctuary is also home to some non-indigenous species such as Californian and Patagonian Sea Lions along with a variety of other animals, including otters and farm animals.
