Seal Island - Mossel Bay, Garden Route

Seal Island in Mossel Bay, located on South Africa’s picturesque Garden Route, is a small rocky outcrop known for its thriving population of Cape fur seals. Situated just a few kilometers from the shore, the island draws visitors and marine enthusiasts who want to observe these playful seals in their natural habitat. The sight of seals sunning themselves on the rocks or diving into the waters is a memorable experience, often complemented by the vibrant marine environment surrounding the island. Seal Island is a favored spot for boat tours from Mossel Bay Harbour, where visitors can watch seals as well as other marine life, including seabirds, dolphins, and occasionally even whales.

The island is popular for its role in the region’s marine ecology, serving as a sanctuary for the Cape fur seal population, which, in turn, attracts apex predators like sharks. Guided boat trips to the island not only showcase the seals but also give visitors an appreciation of the broader ecosystem, making it a key destination for eco-tourism and educational outings. For those interested in the marine food chain, these tours are an insightful way to observe interactions between species in the wild.

During peak tourist seasons, local tour operators offer frequent trips to Seal Island, allowing visitors to experience Mossel Bay’s marine life up close.
