5One of the BEST Wildlife Harbour Cruises Ever - Fun Crew & Great Snacks!!!
We paid $155 for 2 people on this morning cruise of Walvis Bay. They were a little slow in responding to messages, so we had to figure out where they were located exactly but everything worked out fine as they are about a 10-minute easy walk from the cruise port, almost all the way at the end of the marina area (be alert for people offering to escort you there, it isn't necessary at all - just tell them you catching a harbor cruise that you already have purchased tickets for). Once you check-in (at their beautiful wood and glass building), they tell you to meet further down the pier and to use the restroom in a nearby store. The boat probably held about 50 people and every seat was GREAT with lots of room to spread out and everyone having great views. The boat was modern and nice, and the entire crew was very professional and amazing. They walk around serving you beverages and snacks.....explain all about the areas you are seeing....even bring aboard some locally wild (but daily fed by the tour boats so they know the drill) pelicans and seals. We had AMAZING views of the seal colony, lots of seals in the water, pods of dolphins, and a humpback whale - honestly, this was the most active wildlife we have ever encountered on a wildlife sightseeing cruise. The lunch is great and includes local oysters, champagne, and other very tasty snacks. The ride took the full 3 hours and at the end their was a voluntary gratuity basket that you could contribute to for the crew (no pressure at all). A really great experience that we highly recommend!!
5A seal of approval
We booked this independently whilst on a cruise to South Africa from Gran Canaria… the contact from this company was excellent- Sun Sail reached out several days prior to arrival gave location details and met us off the Quay… lots of seals and Pelicans and a couple of Dolphins.. an excellent on board snacks of oysters, fizz and samosa /sandwich’s -a vegetarian meal was on offer too. On our trip the weather was a bit overcast but blankets available, it an open catermaran so on a sunny day (normal weather) plenty of sun lotion and hat required .
5The best oysters and friendly service!
Absolutely amazing the crew were so friendly it was cold and drizzled with rain they gave us blankets and old brown sherry to warm us up and friendly and accommodating highly recommend and will definitely go back!!! Fresh oysters and bubbly!!!
5Wonderful experience on the sea.
We were on the water for 4 hours and were treated with excellent snacks and drinks. We saw a whale, countless seals and dolphins. The staff were exceedingly friendly and efficient. Truly a five star experience.

Met all our expectations. We enjoyed the pelican and seal on board and then the dolphins were also exciting to watch. The food and drink was very good.

About Walvis Bay
Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast of Namibia, is a port town where the Namib Desert meets the sea, with a lagoon full of flamingos.
Walvis Bay is Namibia's main port, set on a sheltered bay with a lagoon where large flocks of flamingos and pelicans feed, and desert dunes begin at the edge of town. Cold water from the Benguela Current brings fog and a cool, dry climate, and rain is rare. South Africa administered the town until 1994, when it became part of Namibia.
