During the Dolphin Cruise in Walvis Bay, Namibia, it is likely that seals will be attracted and come to your boat in search of food. You may even be lucky to have one of them come up to sit with you in the catamaran. Haviside Dolphins, endemic to this Namibian area, and Bottlenose Dolphins will look out of the crystal clear water and jump happily next to your boat.
If you are lucky, you can even spot some Leatherback Turtles. Large amounts of plankton attract the name-giving whales to the Walvis Bay lagoon between August and October.
Join a local guide on a self-drive township tour where you can experience the township flavors and sights of Walvis Bay.

Experience traditional cuisines such as Mopani Worms, Makaka, Oshifima Porridge and beans spread out in a delicious buffet.
From Kuisebmond we visit the diamond cutting and polishing plant in the Export Processing Zone. All of these exciting glimpses into the lives of Namibians are accompanied by detailed explanations and historical information. This township tour lasts between 2 and 4 hours. The tour is flexible and can be arranged any time to suit your needs.The morning Marine Cruise Walvis Bay tour is very popular with tourists, as it shows them an area that the average visitor doesn't have access to. The entire Marine Cruise is done with ski boats in the protected lagoon area of Walvis Bay, where the water is calm and abundant with bird life.
Entertainment is provided by two types of dolphins, a large seal colony at Pelican Point where some seals climb onto the boat for a fishy snack, and wonderful photographic opportunities of low-flying pelicans.
