Whale watching tour from Gansbaai

On your whale watching tour you can spot the gentle giants of the ocean as well as African penguins and fur seals. Before taking to the open water, you will meet to be briefed and introduced to your route and what to expect. Next you will be fitted for your safety geat before you hop on board Dream Catcher, the first boat in South Africa to be designed specifically for whale watching. All cruises depart from Kleinbaai harbor near Gansbaai and will last a couple of hours depending on sightings and weather conditions. From the harbor you will head towards Dyer Island, an access controlled Important Bird Area (IBA) for the conservation of its many resident bird species, including African penguins. Adjacent to Dyer Island is Geyser Rock, home to a 60,000 strong Cape fur seal colony. These seals are present all year round. You will enjoy a tour both fun and educational led by an experienced marine biologist who will share their knowledge with you, keeping emphasis on the welfare and conservation of the animal.
