The BEST way to see Cape Town's hidden marine world!
Animal Ocean are Cape Town’s Ocean Safari specialists. Since 2009, we’ve been exploring this coastline and guiding people into its wildest places.
Our four-hour Ocean Safaris explore around 30 km of coastline in search of dolphins, whales, seals, sunfish and seabirds, with the option to snorkel Cape Town’s kelp forests.
Our experience extends from Cape Town to the Sardine Run and international natural history productions including BBC’s Blue Planet II and Netflix’s Our Oceans and Our Planet.
