Truly amazing experience. Very friendly staff; CJ was very helpful and knowledgeable. Saw Flamingos, Pelicans, Jackals, a few dolphins, even one whale, and countless seals that you come extremely close too. Absolutely worth it.
Great experience!

Unforgettable Half-Day Kayaking with Seals! We had a fantastic morning in Walvis Bay. The kayak tour to the seal colony at Pelican Point was an unforgettable experience – hundreds of seals were swimming around us, some even came really close! The tour was well organized, the guides were friendly, helpful, and shared lots of interesting facts. The kayaks felt very stable and safe, even for beginners or kids. One of the highlights of our Namibia trip – highly recommended!
Full of great!!!

It couldn't have gone any better. Great experience with curious and playful seals. What was just annoying was that a large group of guests was significantly delayed and you had to wait.
Fantastic!

One of the most amazing experiences of my life. The team at Pelican Point Kayaking are 2nd to none. Our guide SJ regaled us with tales of growing up in Namibia but conveniently stopped along the way to point out interesting places and any wildlife such as the black backed jackal eating on the sand (SJ is worth more money). Once in the water, it was incredible! Hopefully the photos do it justice. All topped of with hot tea/coffee and sandwiches back on the beach. I can thoroughly recommend Pelican Point Kayaking for the experience of a lifetime. I would definitely do this again and again!
The best way to spend a morning!

Sooooooo manyyyyyyy seals - even if you’ve seen seals or been in the water with them…..not this many! We were on a cruise and the company had good communication, transport and timing. SJ was a wealth of info and v interesting chap himself - ask him questions should you be lucky enough to have him as your driver! The experience was priceless. I’m coming back as a walvis bay Namibian seal if there is reincarnation cause it’s all about playing eating and sleeping :)
Great fun with the seals

We had a great time. Our guide SJ came to the cruise port to pick us up and took us to the office very close to the cruise port. If you are being picked up at the cruise port, make sure you cross the bridge then WALK 200 meters to the small yellow gate by the very long fence to meet them as they cannot come in to the parking lot by the bridge. From the office SJ drove us and the kayaks to the point, the last section of the drive was on sand and it was Super fun. SJ talked to us about life in Namibia and near the sand dunes. At the point he unloaded all the kayaks and did all the work to keep us comfortable, we basically got on the kayaks on sand and he pushed us out so we don’t get wet. We were given pants and shirts to help with sun protection, as well as life vest. And kayaking with the seals was so fun. They were all around us splashing and frolicking. They were so close and kept on following the kayaks. We had a great time and would highly recommend this tour for your outing. The hot tea and coffee and lunch were very welcoming after the few cold splashes in the water
Great experience!

And lovely morning. This one flew by. These seals are so cute. You're sailing in between! And SJ was a fine guide who was open to questions. Recommended!
