Snorkelling with seals is a once in a lifetime experience that the whole family is guaranteed to love!

Plett Seal Adventures offers you a 1.5-hour guided boat tour to swim with seals in the beautiful Robberg Nature Reserve – a marine protected area in Plettenberg Bay known for its colony of friendly cape fur seals! This boat excursion from Plettenberg Bay to swim with seals is a sure way to create unforgettable memories along South Africa’s Garden Route and is also a great activity for the whole family since no previous experience or expertise is needed.

To begin your seal swimming boat tour from Plettenberg Bay, you will first meet Plett Seal Adventures at their office, located at the bottom of Meeding street right by the Hobie beach parking area. From there you will receive your safety and activity briefing, get equipped, and then head to the boat. From there, an exciting 20-minute boat ride takes you to the Robberg Nature Reserve where over 6,000 fur seals are waiting for you!

Once the boat anchors at the Robberg Nature Reserve, you will then have 20-30 minutes to jump in the water and explore the area with the cape fur seals who will be circling and splashing all around you! Professional guides will accompany you in the water during the entire experience, making sure you are safe and having a great time. They are equipped with the skills to spot any funny acting seals in order to keep you as safe as possible during your seal snorkelling session.

After the exhilarating time in the water with cape fur seals, you will get back on the boat for a scenic trip back to the shores of Plettenberg Bay to end your memorable time at the Robberg Nature Reserve! Your guides will be taking photos of you throughout the entire excursion and the photos will be available for you to download for free at the end of the tour.

The gear was in an outstanding state, all really hygienic and of good quality. On the way to the colony, we saw quite a few dolphins, even some rare ones! Once arrived at the colony our diver made nice pictures and videos with a GoPro which were sent to us a few days later! Really an unforgettable experience and we highly recommend others to book here as well.
