    We were on the water for 4 hours and were treated with excellent snacks and drinks. We saw a whale, countless seals and dolphins. The staff were exceedingly friendly and efficient. Truly a five star experience.

    A wonderful morning on Walvis Bay. Highly recommend.

    An extremely well organised, informative and enjoyable tour. The crew were very attentive and so friendly and the captain had a wealth of information about the harbour and its animals that he shared with us. The drinks and lunch were delicious. We saw thousands of seals as well as dolphins, pelicans as well as a cheeky whale. We arrived on a cruise ship for the day and booked this tour slightly concerned that we’d miss the start but the booking staff reached out to us and confirmed that we were on the cruise and organised a boat especially for cruise guests which ensured we didn’t miss out. Highly recommend this awesome tour.

    Absolutely fabulous

    Just brilliant. Communication with the office was great. The information given was very interesting. The skipper and his crew couldn't be more obliging. The 2 unexpected guests onto the catamaran was just amazing. Oysters and bubbles also helped to make it a truly beautiful experience. Huge thanks.

    Wonderful experience!!

    It was a wonderful experience. The wild life in its natural habitat was wonderful to see. The ocean was a bit rough but it we were warned ahead of time. If you get motion sickness please get medication for it to make your experience as amazing as possible.

    A must-do!

    Exceptional experience and a MUST-DO when in Walvis Bay/Swakopmund! It is a smaller catamaran which creates a more personal and intimate experience. Far less people than the other tours leaving at the same time. Unlimited drinks, from coffee, water, juice and alcohol. Excellent platters with great portions. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful crew. Was a wonderful morning and can highly recommend this activity

    Best excursion in this region!

    We had such a lovely sailing trip. We saw fur seals, pelicans, flamingos and dolphins. The tour guide was great and explained very well information about the city, the regions, the ships and the wildlife. The food was amazing and the service was fantastic! They also provide blankets in case you are feeling cold. We cannot recommend it enough!

    Super boat cruise

    Lucas_E, Apr 2023
    Got to see dolphines, plus the staff was very friendly and accommodating to my needs. It was pretty cold for me, but they provided blankets and tea.

    Enjoyable Cruise

    Danisa_S, Dec 2022
    Good value for money. Enjoyed having seals jump on the cruise and having the opportunity to touch and feed them. Pelicans also came in and got fed. Very good site of dolphins. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

    Do not miss this experience!

    Cannot be missed when in Walvis Bay. Our Guide, Penny (and crew) was amazing!! Scenic experience. Enjoy the close interaction with the seal- and bird life. Third go at this, and it never disappoints!!

    A good day out.

    Raymond_P, Jul 2022
    It was not the newest of Catamarans but the Guide and Captain made up for it. A three hour cruise turned into four as they worked hard to find a pair of humpback whales to follow after seeing sea lions, dolphins, pelicans and sunfish. The brunch was excellent and the time was well spent.

    Very good provider for catamaran tours in Walvis Bay.

    Beautiful catamaran tour with direct pick up at the cruise terminal. Delicious fresh oysters and other snacks accompanied by sparkling wine and other drinks.
