We surely enjoy telling you about the attractions and tours in Cape Town in 'that special way', but we truly enjoy letting you in on those things you could never find out about anywhere else then CapeTownMagazine.com (but surely will be picked up very quickly by others..!)
Diving or snorkeling with South African Fur Seals on Cape Town's Peninsula. An incredible day tour in Cape Town, and no experience needed. This tour is for tourists, backpackers and locals in Cape Town that love to have a great half day snorkeling tour, discovering these incredibly playful animals, truly up close and personal!
You're being picked up from where you are staying or you come with own transport to the launch location, either on the False Bay side or the Atlantic Ocean side.
Here the excitement of this Cape Peninsula tour slowly starts; Wetsuits, flippers, snorkels and young bearded dive fanatics are ready to get you geared up, and slowly it starts to become serious;: "...wow, in an hour I will be in the middle of loads of Seals.. will they be there.. how close will I get..."
Believe us:
The seals are as curious as you and literally circle around you, look at you, hanging upside down in the water and upside down.
Then at the False Bay launch place, Daffy Duck, an enormous rubber duck with 85 horse power engines is smiling at you. Sun glassed crew and Dive masters await you for a beautiful boat ride, taking your small group to Partridge Point. There they are!
Tens and tens, or hundreds(?)South African fur Seals (or Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus for experts..) take a plunge! You dive, the seals dive with you, you go left, the seals go left. It really feels these playful animals were just waiting for you to come and play. What a day tour to remember.
