What about Rabies:
We want to keep you in the loop about the recent rabies outbreak in seals. We’re closely monitoring the situation with the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism and Cape Nature. While there have been a few isolated cases, we’re continuing our activities with some extra safety measures to ensure everyone’s well-being.
We’ll keep you informed about rabies risks and our approach to managing them. Our team has put additional protective steps in place, and we have spotters watching for any unusual seal behavior.
Our local hospital is well-prepared for any seal bite injuries, with trained staff and vaccines on hand, just in case.
We also carry first aid supplies for bite wounds and make sure our guides stay close while you’re in the water, ready to help if needed. To keep the seals calm and ensure you have a great experience, we’ve slightly reduced the time spent in the water.
If you’re feeling a bit uneasy, no problem! You can choose to join a viewing trip instead, which is just as enjoyable. The choice is completely yours, and we’re here to make your experience safe and fun!

We had a fantastic time on the safari. The guide Ashwynn was really knowledgeable and entertaining. PK was a fantastic driver, we felt very safe with him. All the guests were lovely too. We saw seals, humpback dolphins and bottlenose dolphins which was awesome. Landing on the beach was a lot of fun too! Thank you for a memorable experience [?] - Leanne Bird
Organizers were informative and correct: the ordered day, the wind was strong so they re-reserved our trip for the next morning. Everything was good, the boat was good. The traveling was perfect, and we could take some beautiful photos. The guide was nice and well-prepared, the driver was the same. We saw a lot of seals (several thousands), 8 dolphins, a shark, and - suprisingly - a whale. I and my family loved the trip and we recommend it for others to try out! Thank you! - Csaba Szilagyi
The whale watching excursion was highly enjoyable. Our guide made a commendable effort to first locate seals, after which we commenced our search for whales. During this period, we observed a shark in the vicinity. Subsequently, we received information regarding a whale's location, enabling us to capture some remarkable photographs. - Renan Machado
