Hilarious moment Wendy the sea lion invades a hotel, throws a man off his SUNBED and takes it for herself in the Galapagos islands
- Wendy the sea lion went for a swim in a hotel pool in the Galapagos islands
- After a quick length, Wendy lumbered over and sprawled on top of a sun lounger
- Guests are warned against feeding Wendy and to stay at least six feet from her
This is the adorable moment that a sea lion decides to take a dip in a hotel pool and then steals a guest’s sunbed.
Sea lion Wendy and her pup, Lulu visit the hotel in the Galapagos islands daily to swim in the pool.
In the footage captured by a guest, Wendy can be seen struggling up some steps from the sea and then taking a dip in the pool.

Wendy swam a single length of the pool, unsurprisingly managing it with a single breath
Wendy encouraged a guest to leave the sun lounger after lumbering out of the pool
But Wendy did not stop there and after a brief swim, climbed out of the pool having washed the salt water away and lumbered onto a sun lounger to the bemusement of tourists at the exclusive resort – including one man who was forced to scamper away when the sea lion decided she was going to rest on his chair.
Tourists at the resort are told that Wendy is a regular visitor and are asked to remain at least six feet away.
They are also warned not to touch or feed Wendy or the cub.
Locals say Wendy and her pup can spend several hours sleeping on the sun loungers.
One witness, who filmed a recent visit said: ‘The animals here are so respected and loved – everyone is asked to keep a 6-foot distance from them and absolutely no touching or feeding them.
‘I took this video while sitting on our balcony.
‘My husband and I were in the Galápagos for our honeymoon.’
The guest was able to retrieve his towel before Wendy settled on the lounger
After the excitement, Wendy rolled over for a snooze
