Seal snorkeling is fun for all! Children from 6 years can enter the water & children younger than 6 can view from the boat, giving the whole family this wonderful opportunity to bond with the interactive Seals in their natural environment.

DURATION & WHAT TO EXPECT:

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 30 minute snorkel experience with the seals.

Absolutely AMAZING!!! Booked a 2nd snorkel the day after our first 1 - would snorkel with the seals everyday if I could. Bucket list item and a MUST DO when in Plett!!!! - Erin


Very unique experience! Up close and personal with these beautiful and funny creatures. - Cheryl


it was a wonderful experience to go swimming with the seals. I felt totally safe all the time, also because our guide was very professional and gave us very good explanations on what to do and how to approach the seals. We even got to see the wreck and that was also a very special moment for all of us. So a huge thank you for making this possible! Highly recommended! - Martin
