Boat trips to Seal Island

For great views of the bay enjoy a cruise to Seal Island, a small, rocky outcrop named for the many South African fur seals that live there. See them in their natural environment, watch them bask on the rocks or frolic in the freezing water of the Atlantic.

Circe Launches

This cruise takes passengers to the Cape Fur Seal and Sea bird colony at Duiker Island in a glass bottomed boat, the Calypso. Calypso is unique with two 1 x 1 meter viewing ports through which the passengers can enjoy seeing the wonderful kelp forests under the ocean as well as the abundant sea life.
