Overview

It is an amazing sight to get up close to the Cape Fur Seals in their natural environment. One can observe them sunning themselves on the rocks, dropping into the ocean from the rocky ledges, lazing in the water, or putting on an acrobatic show. The colony is made up of over 8000 seals and our experienced guides who are passionate about the ocean and its marine life, will give you a full run down on the seals making it super informative and fun for the whole family. We take you on an exciting and scenic 20-minute boat ride to Robberg Nature Reserve and on the route there is always the possibility of dolphins or whales passing by. Free photos are made available to you after the trip!
