PLETTENBERG BAY, GARDEN ROUTE, SOUTH AFRICA

Ocean Blue Adventures offers a selection of nature and community-based activities suitable for people of all ages, whether travelling in groups, with friends, or with family.

Situated in Plettenberg Bay – along the beautiful Garden Route – we offer ocean safaris, whale-watching tours & dolphin encounters that are suitable whether you’re passing through, or staying for a few days. We are proud to be among the top attractions in the area for over twenty years.

We offer visitors the opportunity to share our incredible natural heritage and connect with the local community.

Our seasonal whale-watching trips are the most popular experience we offer.  Led by our friendly crew, you’ll set off in search of a close encounter with whales that visit us between June and November. From December to May, our focus shifts from whales to resident marine life, such as dolphins, seals, seabirds, and sharks.

For those who prefer dry land, we offer guided walks on the stunning Robberg Peninsula – a UNESCO World Heritage Site with incredible beaches, sand dunes, and views and a fascinating history of its own.

We also support a local crèche/school – and offer visitors the opportunity to visit the kids and get a glimpse of life in a local community.

FEEDBACK FROM SOME OF OUR WONDERFUL GUESTS
Was für ein tolles Erlebnis! Ein großes Dankeschön an unseren Guide und Skipper für ihre Ausdauer. Wir hatten Glück und konnten eine Gruppe von Delfinen beim Jagen beobachten. Bald gesellten sich auch noch Wale und Robben dazu. Es fehlte bloß noch David Attenborough! Delfine und Robben schwammen direkt neben dem Boot her. Wunderschön, ein Traum wurde wahr!

Wir hatten eine großartige Tour mit unserem charmanten und lustigen Guide Hazel, die selbst im Township zu Hause ist. Wir haben die Schule und einige Häuser besucht. Sehr empfehlenswert und beeindruckend.
Sophie L Township Tour
Wir haben die Delfine und den Besuch bei der Robbenkolonie sehr genossen - unser Guide war toll! Danach haben wir die Qolweni Township mit unserem Guide Agnes besucht - sie war wundervoll und es war eine bewegende Erfahrung. Ocean Blue unterstützt eine Vielzahl an Projekten, unter anderem eine Schule in der Township - fantastische Idee. Danke Agnes!! Beide Touren sind äußerst empfehlenswert.
