Pelican Point Kayaking Halvdagstur

Highly recommend this tour. Thrilling to see the seals up close and they are undisturbed and happy with the kayaks around them. Hugo was our guide and he was interesting and engaging and we really enjoyed learning the local wildlife from him. Thank you for a great experience

We loved this tour. It was definitely a highlight of our time in Namibis. The guide was knowledgeable and the whole morning ran smoothly. We had plenty of time to watch the Cape Fur Seals and they came very close to us even biting our paddles. Definitely a m ust on your trip to Walvis Bay.

It was a nice ride to the kayaking site and the guide explained some interesting things about Namibias salt production facilities and wildlife along the way. The kayaking was very easy. The waves were gentle and easy to manoeuvre. The seals were delightful. It was my teenage boy’s favourite activity of our trip. It’s cold on the feet being barefoot to kayak though, so water shoes or a spare pair of regular shoes that can get wet, is advisable.

The kayaking tour with Pelican Point Kayaking was a wonderful experience and definitely one of our highlights in Lüderitz. The morning atmosphere on the water was incredibly calm and relaxed – just the perfect start to the day. What was particularly nice was that we were able to observe many animals along the way: penguins, flamingos, and even some dolphins. The natural scenery was impressive, and the entire tour was very pleasant and cozy, allowing us to enjoy everything at a leisurely pace. Our guide was excellent – very friendly, motivated, and knowledgeable about the region and its wildlife. We felt well taken care of the entire time. An absolute recommendation for anyone who wants to experience Lüderitz from a special perspective.

Florian our tour guide was passionate and knowledgeable about Namibia and his seal colony and pups. Great friendly efficient guide with a memorable seal experience.

We did the Pelican Point Kayaking tour. Our guide was Hugo, who was superb in explaining the bird life and animals we saw (Pelicans, Greater Flamingoes, Black Backed Jackals, Cape Fur Seals, Black Headed Grebes and more). Hugo was also genuinely curious about each traveler and engaged in a way that made one feel you are talking to a friend (and a wise man). The tour itself was well run. Jennifer (Jenna) was the woman on the ground at Pelican Point and she knew what she was doing in making sure we were all safe on the water. The way they conduct this tour is not harmful to the seals in any way, they don't feed or touch the seals and I found that highly ethical. The stars of the show were definitely the seals, these curious creatures had so much fun checking us out (as much we had checking them out). Overall, an experience of a lifetime. Will definitely recommend.

A great experience! The fur seals got all the way to the kayak and despite my initial misgivings they were completely safe. No physical exertion (we 73 J) Unfortunately, no pelicans and dolphins to see at this time of year ☹️

Row, row, row your kayak, gently down the stream of never ending seals… What an amazing adventure we must say. We’ve gotten to know Pelican Point as if we’d grown up there ourselves - with all the small and interesting notes you need to know to feel like you really know a place. Beautiful weather surrounded our half-day-trip to meet rightly 90.000 seals, or the majority of them. Everything felt right and in time and space - our five year old still talks about the colony, the water, the beach and the exiting ride. Thank you a lot, team of Pelican Point Kayaking

Not the best experience. I was a little taken back by all the dead seals that are on the beach along the way. Additionally, our tour guides parked the trucks and set up the tables right by a baby dead seal. Was kind of gross. "Brunch" was a roll with a piece of deli meat. Super disappointing. And still trying to get the stink out of my swim suit because of the water.

On 20th December, 2025 we, the group of 20 people attending kayaking with Pelican Point Kayaging agency. We were more then happy with fluent organisation and knowledge of all 3 drivers-guides. They even took care about tasty breakfast and tea/coffee. Definetly will bring my clients again to attend exciting kayaking with Pelican Point Kayaking.
