Swim with inquisitive, furry seals during this amazing wildlife encounter in Plettenberg Bay. A fun day out for the whole family (aged 6+) and an experience you’ll never forget!
Tours depart from Central Beach, Plettenberg Bay, where you’ll report to the Adventure hut. You'll be given a short briefing and provided with all the necessary equipment, including snorkels and wetsuits. You’ll then board a boat and cruise out to the Robberg Peninsula, home to around 6000 Cape fur seals! Here, your crew will drop anchor, and under the supervision of a fully qualified divemaster, you’ll jump into the water for a 30-minute swim. The seals are highly inquisitive and will likely come closer to see what all the fuss is about! Share the water with some of the ocean’s most charismatic creatures—and make memories that’ll last a lifetime!
Swimming with seals in Plettenberg Bay is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and it would make a unique gift for any animal lover.
