Get wet in Plett
We just want to do what we love: being on the ocean and entertaining people. Nothing in the world beats the look on the face of an excited person.
Who we are
Offshore Adventures takes people to meet the wildlife of Plettenberg Bay: playful Cape fur seals all year, and blue and mako sharks and great schools of sardines in season.
We pride ourselves on an excellent safety record, WESSA Blue Flag status and a high standard and code of conduct towards the environment and the animals. We support research and fund seal rehabilitation.
We supply everything you need: wetsuits, fins, snorkels and more. You don't need any experience. We operate all year round, seven days a week, with trips at 10:00, 12:00 and 14:00, depending on numbers and weather. In season we add an 08:00 trip and carry up to 24 guests per time slot. Special arrangements can be made for big groups.
Each winter the same crew heads up to the Wild Coast for the Sardine Run, and through the year we provide water safety for surfing events and film crews.
