Offshore Adventures Invites Visitors to Experience Plettenberg Bay’s Untamed Beauty Aboard New Vessel ‘Oceanic’
PLETTENBERG BAY, June 10, 2025 – Offshore Adventures, Plettenberg Bay’s leading marine adventure operator, is thrilled to announce enhanced seal viewing experiences along the breathtaking Robberg Peninsula, now featuring their brand-new, state-of-the-art vessel, ‘Oceanic’. This exciting development offers guests an unparalleled opportunity to discover the rich history, exceptional biodiversity, and extreme beauty of this iconic nature reserve, while enjoying a comfortable and exhilarating journey.
Robberg Peninsula, a declared National Monument and World Heritage Site, boasts a fascinating geological history dating back 100 million years. Its rugged cliffs and ancient rock formations tell a story of millennia, forming a dramatic backdrop to Plettenberg Bay’s vibrant marine ecosystem. As a crucial part of South Africa’s Marine Protected Areas (MPA), Robberg provides a sanctuary for a diverse array of marine life, including various fish species, dolphins, and, most notably, the popular colony of Cape Fur Seals.
“We are incredibly excited to welcome guests aboard ‘Oceanic’ for our seal viewing tours along Robberg,” says Jaco Kruger, Owner of Offshore Adventures. “At this time of year, the bay is teeming with marine life and a seal viewing tour to Robberg offers an unparalleled immersive experience of the bay. Our guests can get up close to the playful seals of Robberg and truly appreciate the sheer natural beauty and ecological significance of the Robberg Peninsula.”
The Cape Fur Seal colony at Robberg is a highlight of the tours, providing a captivating spectacle of these playful and intelligent creatures in their natural habitat. Offshore Adventures’ experienced guides offer insightful commentary on the seals’ behaviour, the history of Robberg, and the vital role the MPA plays in protecting this precious environment. The stunning beauty of the peninsula, with its dramatic cliffs, pristine beaches, and diverse birdlife, makes every trip an unforgettable photographic and educational journey.
