Even though there weren't any whales around … [Read more...] about 10 out of 10 Again

Sarah
On Thursday 24 January, Sarah joined Algoa Bay Marine on a Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour: Sarah says: It’s quite a strange experience at first at 5:30 in the morning... you step out onto the boat, with all your anticipation and excitement.

And then from nowhere, one dolphin, five dolphins, 10 dolphins and then what seem to be hundreds encompass you and … [Read more...] about Sarah

On 09/08/2018, Alan Straton joined Algoa Bay Marine on a Whale and Dolphin Watching Tour: Alan Straton says: I have been on a number of trips with Algoa Bay Marine and the one on 9 August was one of the Top TWO most special.

Little did we realise that we would experience an extremely close encounter with two whales of a different kind... Just as the vessel … [Read more...] about Guest Review by Alan Straton
