Great adventure ,swimming with seals who are super cute and friendly and love to play around you and touch you and together with the great staff of Offshore Adventures it's a Must ! - Ron Zohar
It was a great experience. Seeing the seals up close was fantastic. The guides were friendly and informative. 10/10 would definitely recommend - Salwa fakir
Swimming with Seals through Offshore Adventures was REMARKABLE and has to be on everyone's to-do list in life! Aside from a memorable experience, I have to commend the team for the extra effort they went to make my 7 year old son feel relaxed. Honestly, above and beyond! As a result, the day spent with this crew remains one of the highlights of his entire trip, and he STILL talks about his new nickname "Little Red". You guys ROCK! - Ruth
What an awesome experience! We were very nervous at first, but the Offshore Adventures team continuosly reassured us that they would stay close to us at all times during the swimming experience. We thoroughly enjoyed it, and it was most certainly the highlight of our Garden Route holiday. Swimming with Seals was a bucket list adventure that we will forever remember and cherish... - Moroesi Magudulela
I am so thrilled that I participated in this experience. I loved it. It was so great to be close to the seals, and see them play and come and investigate the humans swimming with them. I also loved how close they came to us, some even brushed past us. I felt totally safe the entire time and would do it again tomorrow. - Theresa Gibbon
“Our favourite!” The 2 hour Storms River Kayak & Lilo Adventure is our most popular adventure activity in Tsitsikamma National Park! If you are keen to explore deeper into the Storms River Gorge in Tsitsikamma, and experience the long, deep, quiet pools, then the Kayak and Lilo trip is for you!
We paddle from the Harbour next to the small beach across the ocean, then under the Suspension Bridge and up the beautiful Storms River Mouth. Please note that if the sea is rough, you have to hike to the Suspension Bridge (along a boardwalked trail), where we then hike along the river from the suspension bridge up to the jetty to where you then get on onto your kayaks. This 1km hike takes about 30 min
This is where the true Kayaking adventure begins – paddling the Storms River, the pinnacle of Tsitsikamma National Park. After waving to all the tourists photographing you from the Suspension Bridge, we continue the kayak trip up the Stormsriver. We paddle right into the bats cave and spend time gazing up at the magnificent and spectacular cliffs all around us, all from the comfort of our double sit-on-top kayaks.
At the low-water point we disembark our kayaks and we jump on our unique Lilo’s. (a Lilo is an inflatable mattress that we’ve had specially made for this trip). From here we walk and float over a short section of rocks and simply wade deeper up the river on the Lilo’s. What a stunning view it is, laying on a Lilo at water level, and gazing up to cliffs that touch the sky! At reaching a certain point, we simply turn our Lilo’s around and float back down river to our Kayaks!

My tour basically turned into a private tour as I was the only person who had booked (they still went ahead!). Clinton was a wonderful guide, allowing me to take my time and spend time floating around. The sounds of the river and its surroundings are stunning! Kayak, Lili, swimming, jumping off cliffs. Fun time! Thanks a lot, definitely to be recommended. - TS
