Itinerary
We stop at the Flamingos and view the many beautiful birds at the Lagune.. We might see Pelicans and terns. The route takes us past the pink salt lakes of the huge Salt Mine and we learn how it works. We then turn north to Pelican point ;light house where the 50 000 seals colony is. We find a suitable spot to unload the Kayaks and then peddle into the the Bay. The seals swim around the Kayaks, what an awesome experience. We serve some cool drinks and sandwiches once we are done . Then everybody helps to load the Kayaks and we slowly go back to Walvis Bay.

5Brilliant experience!
I had the best morning with LeClue kayaking with the seals. The seals were super friendly and engaging - LeClue found a brilliant spot to launch and gave us clear guidance to make sure that the seals were comfortable and we weren’t intruding on them. The group was small (just me and another couple), and LeClue was so kind and friendly teaching us a lot about Namibia and made lots of stops whenever we saw anything interesting. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!
5Unforgettable
One of the best experiences of our lives! Our tour guide, Stephan, was so enthusiastic to share his knowledge and to give insight into everything we passed by. We never felt unsafe - he knew what he was doing. And the seals... oh my word!! It was surreal to be so close to them and actually have them jump on the kayaks. We could not recommend this any more highly!
5Worth it!
An amazing and unique adventure! Not only the“swim” with the seals, but also the great organization and the fun little facts shared by our guide, Stephan, really made the experience complete.
5Stephan is the best
Stephan was a very funny but also helpful guide. We had a great experience and learned a lot. Stephan even prepared breakfast for us on a small table. That was cute.
5Amazing

5Totally recommend it!
Worth every cent we paid! Just be prepared to get wet and sandy.

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.
