"Nice tour. Didn't see as much wildlife/birds as we were hoping for as we had fog most of the morning so visibility was poor.

However, you will see plenty of other boats doing the same thing.

Staff were great as so was the lunch." Read more about this whole safari

"Amazing"

Based at Cornerstone Guesthouse on 18 Oct 2020
"We really loved this. A bunch of pelicans and a few fur seals came and joined us on the boat as well as some kelp gulls. A pod of bottlenose dolphins gave us a fantastic show and then later on we also saw some Heavyside dolphins. We also saw lots of fur seals in the water and the seal colonies at Pelican Point, as well as lots of other sea birds.

Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better a humpback whale showed up. They also plied us with alcohol (including a great local sherry) and gave us a fabulous lunch complete with oysters (which were fabulous). I got to feed a young fur seal some fish!!!

We did both this and the kayaking and we both agreed that we preferred the boat cruise. That is partly because we both love taking photos, and it was much easier to do this from a boat than a kayak, but also because we got much closer to all the wildlife (except the flamingos) on the boat than we did from the kayaks."

"Super marine cruise"

Based at The Stiltz on 19 Jan 2014
"Only problem was that we had not been told which company we were sailing with as there are quite a few leaving from the same location! However once sorted out all went well.

Gentle sail on the catamaran with surprise guests - seal, pelicans, jelly fish. Lots of noisy seals and a few penguins. Good commentary. Lunch was super - too much to eat and beautifully presented and managed.

A recommended trip" Read more about this whole safari

"Harbour cruise"

Based at Villa Margherita on 27 Jul 2009
"Again the bad weather prevented us going out for very long, this time it was the fog in Walvis Bay.
It was perhaps very touristy but none the less we saw the Benguela Dolphin but did not stay all that long at the seal colony cause of weather" Read more about this whole safari
