subject: Visit Auk Cliff during Your Torquay Holidays [print this page] One of the places you should visit while enjoying your Torquay holidays is the Auk Cliff at Living Coasts. Living Coasts is a zoo that is a perfect place to enjoy an exciting day with your family. Living Coasts is not very far from the holiday cottages and is one of the most popular places to enjoy a family day-out. Visiting this zoo during your Torquay holidays will give you a chance to see some of nature's best. This is a special zoo where you will be able to see the natural habitat of several animals. These habitats are specially designed for these animals to give them a feeling of being in their own natural homes. The zoo not only has animals but also serves as a place to educate people about the various animals and the environment that needs to be protected. You will need to leave your holiday cottage early in the day to fully explore and enjoy this zoo.
Auk Cliff
The Auk is a bird that belongs to the Alcidae family and is similar to the penguins. They are black and white and imitate some of the habits and the upright postures of the penguin. This is another attraction you should not miss while staying at the holiday cottages. The Auk Cliff is the first-of-a-kind Auk habitat in the whole world. The Auk Cliff is an outdoor Auk exhibit where you can see these birds. The water in the exhibit is constantly kept churning and moving to imitate the natural movements of the sea water in the natural habitat. Some of the other birds at this exhibit are the tufted puffins, common guillemot and the pigeon guillemot. All of these birds are beautiful and are worth seeing during your Torquay holidays.
Tufted Puffin
Do not miss the chance of seeing the tufted puffin while staying at the holiday cottages. The tufted puffins are from North America and are similar to the native puffins. These birds have extremely strong nails and this allows them to climb up the rocky surface of any cliff. You can see these birds in this man-made natural habitat at the Auk Cliff. This is an opportunity you have only during your Torquay holidays.
Pigeon Guillemot
The pigeon guillemot is another attraction you will see at Auk Cliffs. If you have booked one of the holiday cottages for your Torquay holidays, you can visit this amazing place and see these birds. The pigeon guillemot is a bird with red legs and feet. This bird can dive in the water to more than 150 feet and can even stay underwater for more than a minute.
