Description:

Take to the seas and cruise out to Duiker Island, a rocky outcrop just off the shore where a vast colony of fur seals bask in the sun just out of the waves. Marvel at the array of life that flocks to the waters, such as feeding sharks, migrating whales, and year-round flights of birds.

Set sail to the small islet Just off the Cape Peninsula, where you can observe the large colony of fur seals that call it home. Throughout the year the waters in and around the island are abundant with life and there are plenty of fish for the fur seals to feast on. Train your eyes to the skies to view different species of birds as they swarm overhead, ready to dive for their food.

With so many seals, larger predators are also attracted. During winter months you may very well catch a sighting of the most infamous of them all, the Great White Shark, and with them scenes of natural predation. Year-round you can expect to spot dolphins and Bryde’s and humpback whales roaming the waters. From July to November the often-good-natured southern right whales migrate through the region.
