Short Description
  • Set off on an unforgettable adventure with the ultimate Seal Island Combo. Start by kayaking on the calm waters of Hout Bay, getting up close to playful seals (and sometimes) dolphins in their natural habitat. Then, hop aboard the Calypso boat for a visit to Duiker Island, where you’ll see thousands of seals basking in the sun. This exciting combination tour offers the best of both worlds – a thrilling kayak experience followed by a scenic boat trip to one of Cape Town’s most famous wildlife spots. Perfect for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike!
  • Our combo is a great way to spend half a day enveloped in the marine life that Hout Bay has to offer. Start with the early 11:00 kayak session and either have time for a lunch break before your boat trip or start your kayak tour at 13h00 and jump straight on the boat as you get back. All excursions begin with a brief introduction by your tour guide. They will then help you get acquainted with the basics of kayaking, which is especially necessary if you’re new to this activity. The introduction includes a safety demonstration to ensure all guests have a safe and comfortable tour. You’ll also be fitted with a life jacket. Once you hit the water, your tour guide will lead the group to different checkpoints. You’ll get a tour of the harbour, during which your tour guide will enlighten you with their vast knowledge. From here you will jump aboard Calyspo and move to the mouth of the bay where you will see the seals in their natural habitat frolicking at "seal island"
