Plettenberg Bay: Swim with Seals

It was one of the most wonderful experiences in my trip. I loved it, it has adventure, cuteness and a lovely team helping you out. A must do in your Garden Route trip - you won’t regret it. My mother can’t swim and the guides were very helpful and attentive.

Get ready for an adrenaline-filled adventure! Once you arrive, you are covered with all equipment, get a safety briefing and important information. The boat ride to and from the snorkeling spot was an adventure in itself as the waves were quite high that day (a few people got seasick, so you might want to take some medicine beforehand if you are senstive to that). The encounter with the seals was really special. The guides make sure you are not disturbing them in their habitat and 'only come by for a visit'. As long as you respect the rules, everything should go smoothly. Our guide Angelo was amazing! He made sure everyone was safe the entire time. After all you are out in the open sea and close to wild animals - encounters like that can always go either way and cannot be planned. I loved it! Also the pictures and videos Angelo took are so much fun as well!
