What To Expect

Seal Island
Seal Island or Duiker Island is home to a colony of thousands of Cape Fur Seals. This is an exciting, child friendly 40-minute cruise from Hout Bay harbor to Duiker Island the Seal Colony where you can view thousands of wild Cape Fur Seals, close up in their beautiful natural habitat. They’re very playful and curious and love interacting with people. With around 6000 Cape fur seals populating the island between January and March along with a variety of seabirds and cormorants, this is the time of year when you will see the most seals. Enjoy watching the seals peacefully snorting and groaning on the rocks, with the larger males fiercely fighting for dominance, and others sliding off into the chilly seas with their fins lifted high as if throwing a wave to the passing boats.
