Unique - The organization and guidance were TOP. Unfortunately, I've become seasick and haven't seen so many seals. There were certainly many present.

Incredible Tour with Angelo! - We opted for a private tour with the amazing Angelo. He was a knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic guide with enormous passion for the sea and its inhabitants. We were lucky to come across pods of dolphins during our tour which was extra special. The company was extremely well organized and even provided hot showers on site at the end.

One of the best things I have ever done !! - Wow…this trip is amazing, from the high adrenaline boat launch off the beach to the ride out to the seal colony off Robert island to the actual swimming in the water with these amazing creatures. Our guide Liam gave us all the relevant safety information and was informative and professional.it is importantly not to try and interact with the seals as they just swim away but just floating on the water they will come up to you and play around you ..one of the best things I have done so ,magical. Thank you so much

Don't worry, just go! - Best thing to do in Plet! The team is very professional. They tell u everything you need. There are 2 rabies cases in this colony, 1 in januari and 1 in june. They provide extra arm and leg protectors if you want. It was the best activity we did!

Great😍 - My boyfriend and I had such an incredible experience. It was a great activity. Our guide Angelo explained everything very precisely and gave us a great briefing on everything. In addition, he was very caring and took good care of us. If you stick to his statements nothing can happen to you.

Magical experience! - This was a truly magical experience. My family and I (kids aged 9 and 12) had a great time swimming with the Cape Fur seals. The Offshore Adventure team were great... experienced, professional and knowledgeable, they ensured our safety while having an amazing experience visiting these wonderful sea creatures! I would definitely recommend.

Thrilling swim with seals. - Being so close to seals was so amazing! We really swam with them, a little intimidating but soon relaxed and enjoyed the thrill.

Definitely give it a go! - Really fun experience! So close up with the seals, you’ll never get a chance to be this close!
Would definitely recommend! We were out on a choppy day, so get your sea legs ready as can feel a bit sea sick! Most people on our boat felt a bit ropey on the way back!

A day of many firsts! - First time:
- in South Africa
- in Plettenberg
- in the Indian Ocean
- in deep, turbulent water
- so close to wildlife
- in a dry suit feeling like a penguin
- trying to breath with goggles instead of my nose
- swimming with flippers
- loosing selfcontrol and balance while trying to swim with all that equipment
- buming into seals and other tourists
- making eye contact up close with seals
- standing in an ocean with no sand or rock to stand on
- something adventures
Loved it, while having a small panic attack.
