Seal Kayaking at Pelican Point from Swakopmund

About this activity

We collect our guests at their accommodation free of charge, in Swakopmund and along the coast to Walvisbay. All other companies want you to use or find your own transport to Walvisbay. We include a light lunch and drinks.

We use new modern unsinkable Kayaks easy for anybody to use and that do not capsize. Everybody gets a life jacket and the guide will coach you on the use of the Kayak. No previous experience required.

Its a must do for the active traveler. Should a group want to Kayak at another place that's also possible, contact us and lets see if its possible.

Itinerary

Our tour starts In Swakopmund and we pick up in Walvisbay too. We stop at the Flamingos and view the many beautiful birds at the Lagune.. We might see Pelicans and terns. The route takes us past the pink salt lakes of the huge Salt Mine and we learn how it works. We then turn north to Pelican point ;light house where the 50 000 seals colony is. We find a suitable spot to unload the Kayaks and then peddle into the the Bay. The seals swim around the Kayaks, what an awesome experience. We serve some cool drinks and sandwiches once we are done . Then everybody helps to load the Kayaks and we slowly go back to Swakopmund.
