Professional and reassuring - This place was fantastic. We booked with ease prior to arriving in Plattenburg Bay. When we arrived the organisers were fantastic. The briefing before we went out was professional and reassuring. I was a little nervous of Great white sharks, but the instructor was great and reassured my safety and concerns. It could not have gone any better.

Just do it. It’s amazing. - Great trip. Launch of the boat and beaching at the end was a thrill ride. The seals interaction was a brilliant experience. Angelo and skipper Red were very good and Angelo downloaded pics from his go pro by the end of the day. Would recommend. Good quality gear and clear instruction. Great experience. THANK YOU!

Amazing, must do - Amazing experience and pro team! They provided all extra protection and explained how to behave in the water. After first snorkel they immediately brought us back to boat because seals got too excited. The second snorkel was total success, and i was thankful that they prioritize safety first. And if you want to feel extra safe, just keep yourself close to the instructor. Thank you Liam, for making memorable day for us!

Nice experience. To do! - Great team. Lots of people , however it is well managed and therefore fast . Divers enjoyed swimming , stagnating amid seals . Others were able to enjoy the show in this magnificent setting . ( in addition to the noise and smells typical of the site ). The pilot respects distances , animals , the diver who accompanies tourists is also a good professional .Boat Return: 1 hour , and 30' dive . Full arrival on the beach , fun . Great time spent with Family. The moments lived , and the movies are much more joyful than the photos .

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.

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.

Bad experience - Was not a good experience, four people from our group were bitten with one requiring 17 stiches to be administered to his foot. This was also followed up with 5 rabies injections
