The Seals steal the show - Amazing opportunity to get up close to Cape Fur Seals. The whole experience was amazing. My friend just did the boat trip but I went in with the seals. Claude our guide was great - enthusiastic and knowledgeable, and even as a novice with a snorkel I felt very safe. It’s great that all the kit you need is provided, and to be able to download photos and videos for free is fantastic

Amazing trip - We had an amazing trip with Angelo our guide and his team We didn't swim with the seals (not brave enough) but saw hundreds of them and found the whole experience so moving seeing them all swimming around the boat and jumping in and out of the water. We felt safe and well looked after throughout our trip thank you 😊

Great experience in great conditions - We were welcomed by Claude who provided with quality equipment after giving us clear explanations and safety instructions on how the activity would go. The trip to the spot with the seals was very fun. Regarding the activity itself, I didn’t expect so much interaction with the seals they are very playful but it still feels very safe. Claude will take nice pictures and videos of you with his GoPro that will be free of access and if you are lucky he will teach you how to make circle bubbles underwater (great teacher). Once again thanks a lot for this unforgettable experience. 👋🏼

Fun, adventurous and insightful. - Such an amazing and insightful experience. We realized that seals are very smart and underestimated creatures and we loved interacting with them in their natural habitat. The guide was very friendly, well prepared and shared a lot of knowledge with us.

Seals steal the show - The water was crystal clear and the seals were very entertaining, Diving, playing and swimming all around us plus you could hear them grunting and 'talking' to each other up on the rocks.

Swimming with seals - Such a great experience. Everything we have expected and more. Layne Wilkens is an absolute star with the deep knowledge and passion for everything related to ocean. The team was amazing- I can't really swim, but someone was with me in Water at all times to ensure a smooth experience. We visited a colony of 7000 seals (with lots of pups), seals were friendly and curious. Once un a lifetime experience- I highly recommend!

unforgettable whale watching - We went twice with Offshore Adventures for whale watching and seal viewing. I can only recommend this activity. We saw many whales , females with calves and some humpback whales were breaching out of the water. It was really great. You need some luck too, but the tour operator tried its best to get us close to the animals and to show us as much as possible. Anytime I would do it again. Nothing to complain about, everything was perfectly organized. Chose your time well as smaller groups are always better than a fully packed boat
