5.00Very cool tour! We've all seen: Seals, dolphins and even whales! The crew on the catamaran did everything they could to make sure we saw the whales. Lunch was very sumptuous and fresh, we drank sparkling wine and enjoyed the ride. Very funny and friendly crew members. Thank you very much!!! Would recommend to anyone! ❤️

5.00An amazing and unique experience. It all worked out. Great team, great food and lots of animals seen. The pelicans on board were the absolute highlight! Would do the tour again the next time you visit Walvis Bay immediately.

5.00We 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!!

5.00We 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 .
The best oysters and friendly service!

5.00We 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.
Pelican, sea lions, dolphins and humpback whales...

5.00The Marine Dolphin Seal Cruise with Sun Sail was an absolute highlight of our holiday! From the first minute we felt completely comfortable – the team on board was not only friendly and professional, but also took care of all guests with genuine warmth. We would like to emphasize particularly positively that even our vegetarian wishes were met without problems and with great care – this is unfortunately not a matter of course with excursions of this kind. The food was delicious and lovingly prepared. The tour itself was breathtaking: We saw dolphins, experienced sea lions up close and enjoyed the fantastic scenery from the water. The crew talked a lot about wildlife and you could tell how much they cared about the respectful treatment of nature and animals. Thanks to the whole team – we would book this tour again at any time and can recommend Sun Sail without restriction!

5.00Met 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.
