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.

Top-notch experience 😊 I won't say any more so I can leave you the surprise from start to finish! But go there 😜
Thank you for leaving a 5-star review! Safe travels 😊🙌🙌 Uwe
One of the best experiences of our lives! Our tour guide, Stephan, was so enthusiastic to share his knowledge and to give insight into everything we passed by. We never felt unsafe - he knew what he was doing. And the seals... oh my word!! It was surreal to be so close to them and actually have them jump on the kayaks. We could not recommend this any more highly!
Thank you for your excellent review. We truly value your feedback and support we're glad you had such a memorable experience with the seals and company- your satisfaction is our greatest reward. Thanks Uwe
An amazing and unique adventure! Not only the“swim” with the seals, but also the great organization and the fun little facts shared by our guide, Stephan, really made the experience complete.
Thank you for the wonderful review. Glad you had an amazing and fun experience and that you were happy with the organization. Warm regards Uwe
Stephan was a very funny but also helpful guide. We had a great experience and learned a lot. Stephan even prepared breakfast for us on a small table. That was cute.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed the food and that your guide kept the tour fun and entertaining. We hope to welcome back for another unforgettable adventure. Warm regards Uwe

Most definitely worth every cent 😁, thank you for the amazing feedback! Thanks Uwe
Andrew, our driver, was very knowledgeable and told us many interesting things along the way
Wonderful feedback! thank you 🙌. Regards Uwe
We booked the full-day tour with pickup in Swakop and absolutely loved it. We had a great time both kayaking and on the trip to Sandwich Harbour. Our guide, Le Clue, was with us the whole time and taught us so much about Namibia! He also treated us to some great snacks. Le Clue was one of the best guides we’ve ever had on all our travels. Thank you so much, my Friend!
Thanks a lot for the 5-star review! kayaking + Sandwich Harbour will forever be a famous and adventurous combo as you get to experience both land and sea in one day, from thrilling dune driving to paddling with the cute, playful and naughty seals 😁. Wonderful to hear you had such a great time in Namibia with Sandwich Harbour Tours. Thanks Uwe
It's a fascinating experience. All very well organized. Our guide Andrew has been extraordinarily attentive to us. He has given us explanations about animals, plants, geology, history... He has also taken us comfortably in the 4x4 on roads and dunes. The kayak ride with hundreds of friendly seals has been unforgettable. A dream come true!! A magnificent picnic on the way back to the coast has capped the excursion before returning to the hotel in a relaxed manner. I recommend this activity!!
Thank you for the 5-star warm review! glad you were impressed with the organization, picnic and tour. Kayaking with the 'playful' seals is always unforgettable, highly recommended 😊. Thanks Uwe
We enjoyed the kayak tour among the seals. Guide Leclue was incredibly friendly and shared all kinds of fun facts about the animals and the area. The seals came curiously close and provided a unique, unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
Thank you for taking your time to leave such a wonderful review. We're delighted that you had such a wonderful and unforgettable experience with the 'playful' seals. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure. Thanks Uwe
