Jump on the boat for this once in a lifetime Snorkeling experience out to the beautiful Robberg Nature Reserve, where you get up close & personal with our local playful Cape Fur Seals!
Seal snorkeling is fun for all ages, giving the whole family this wonderful opportunity to bond with the interactive Seals in their natural environment.
DURATION & WHAT TO EXPECT:
1 ½ hours
You will be met on arrival by our experienced seal guide who will sign you in & assist with fitting your snorkel gear (changing rooms & lockers are available on site). Once everyone has geared up, the group will take a short stroll on the beach to the boat where you be given a briefing by the skipper & seal guide on boat procedures & the seal snorkeling experience, before embarking on a short boat ride to Robberg Nature Reserve. You will then get to jump into the water with your guide for an exhilarating 20-30 minute snorkel experience with the seals. On arrival back at ProDive, our facilities include changing rooms & showers where can freshen up after your once in a life time marine animal encounter.
Snorkeling gear: Mask & Snorkel, Wetsuit & Fins.
FREE Photo & Video footage is made available to you after the trip.
WHERE TO MEET:
Please drive straight to the Beacon Island Hotel Main Entrance. Park outside & follow our signs on the walkway to the left of the boom gate. We are INSIDE the Beacon Island Hotel complex, next to the volleyball courts. If you need any further directions please ask the security.
MEETING TIME:
The time advertised is the launch time, please meet at our dive centre no later than 45 minutes before the time.
RABIES UPDATE:
We want to keep you informed about the recent rabies cases identified in seals. Our team is actively monitoring the situation in coordination with the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism, as well as Cape Nature who manage Robberg Nature Reserve. While the cases have been isolated, we’ve introduced additional safety measures to protect everyone.
To help manage the risk, we’ve implemented extra precautions by working together with the other operators & have experienced marine spotters keeping an eye out for any unusual seal behaviour.
During excursions, our guides carry first aid kits specifically for bite injuries and are always close by while you’re in the water, ready to assist immediately. The boat stays close to the group to pick up swimmers swiftly, if required. We have a 30 year impeccable safety record and our crew are always ready to react in any situation.
Our local trauma doctor is fully equipped to handle seal bite incidents and we have ensured that vaccines are readily available.
If you’re feeling unsure, you’re welcome to switch to a viewing trip instead—it’s just as fun and a great way to enjoy the experience from a different perspective. Whatever you choose, we’re here to make sure your adventure is both safe, enjoyable & memorable!
Das Schwimmen mit den Seerobben war ein absolutes Highlight auf unserer Sudafrika Reise. Wir haben eine gute Einweisung bekommen, alle Verhaltensregeln wurden gut erklart, ein Guide war immer mit im Wasser und hat darauf geachtet, dass die Gruppe zusammen bleibt. Die Seerobben sind sehr verspielt, es ist eine wunderbare Erfahrung, den Tieren in ihrem naturlichen Lebensraum so nahe zu kommen. Auch die Fahrt mit dem Schnellboot dorthin ist sehr schon. Wir hatten viel Spass. Fotos werden gemacht und noch am selben Tag jedem Teilnehmer auf das Handy geschickt. Ich empfehle aber jedem zusatzlich eine Go Pro mitzunehmen falls vorhanden. - Stefanie
Fantasticky zazitek! Vyborne organizovany vylet na snorchlovani s tuleni. Vynikajici priprava, vynikajici vybaveni a vynikajici organizace. rozhodne doporucuji kazdemu bez rozdilu veku a plaveckych schopnosti. Dekujeme! - Vladimir
Great experience - fully reccomend. - Rafal
Great experience from briefing to shower. Guide, captain and the seals were all fantastic. The guide also took pictures so we could focus on the seals which are very friendly and curious. Human presence did not seem to bother them. If you do the Robberg hike you can spot the colony from the top. - Francisco
Amazing experience, already recommended to all my friends and family. - Ashton
