An elephant seal has reappeared on a Mornington Peninsula beach after drawing crowds on Friday on the other side of Port Phillip Bay, where it came ashore and smashed windows at a service station.

Glenn Sharp, a regional operations manager with Victoria's Conservation Regulator, said he had helped coax the huge seal away from danger last week, when the seal crossed roads in Point Lonsdale and appeared to be spooked by its reflection in the windows.
