"We all loved this. Eco-Marine were lovely and really care about the local environment and animal welfare.
The seal pups come into the water to interact with the kayakers and were so playful. We had several seals jump on and hitch a ride.
They gave us a simple but lovely lunch. A great day out - our daughters loved it." Read more about this whole safari

"An amazing experience getting close to hundreds of juvenile seals in a sheltered bay with expert guides.
Whilst the seals are a key part the drive to the area is also intersting. We stopped to discuss the sea salt industry, photograph flamingos and pelicans and the Skeleton Bay surf break!" Read more about this whole safari

"This was one of the highlights of our trip and was probably undersold.....as it's like 3 trips in one actually.
Not only the seals, but also the informative and exciting drive out there along the sand, past the remarkable lighthouse on the beach, as well as the sight of all the flamingoes along the way and then on the beach next to the seals.
The area we kayaked in was calm and shallow so we felt very safe and there were 000's of seals on the beach as well as in the water with us. And that's no exaggeration!
They were so close as to nibble on our paddles and get up really close. It was magical and will stay with us forever." Read more about this whole safari

"Picture thousands and thousands of seals along a nice sandy beach and splashing about in the water, with hundreds of flamingos strutting amongst them. Kayaking amongst them was a very special experience, and some even came up to be petted.
We also had a bottlenose dolphin group come and visit too.
This was a great professional setup." Read more about this whole safari
