Event information
Simon’s Town Boat Company invites you to share the most beautiful bay in the world. They operate two custom-designed vessels, skippered by highly qualified crew and all tours are accompanied by an expert commentary.
Hop on board for Whale & Dolphin watching in False Bay. A calm, sheltered haven for some of the most fascinating ocean giants on our planet: Southern Right whales, Humpback whales and Bryde's whales. Whilst Bryde’s whales are all-year-round residents, it’s the migratory Southern Right and Humpback whales that are the stars of the whale watching tours.
Simon’s Town Boat Company is the only licensed whale watching company in Simon’s Town that is permitted to approach and interact with whales alongside the boat.
You can also try out the Seal Island ECO cruise and the Cape Point ECO cruise. The ‘real’ seal island is situated at the northern centre of False Bay, 8 nautical miles from Simon’s Town. It is home to a thriving population of around 75 000 Cape fur seals and a large variety of endangered sea birds, including a small population of penguins. The Cape Point ECO cruise offers an ocean-based adventure along the majestic and unspoiled Cape Peninsula coastline, very much the same today as it was when first discovered by the early mariners.
