More whales! Marine Big 5 Daily Blog
Written by October 31 2021

Our time at se started with thousands of Cape Cormorants close to Franskraal. Further along the way we spotted a group of penguins and stopped by a shark cage diving boat. Arrived in Pearly Beach we were shortly surrounded by some southern right whales with some great close up looks as a mother and her calf decide do approach our vessel. And after a stop by Geyser Rock, we were heading to Dyer Island for some more penguins. On our second tour we had just as great sightings, starting at the shark cag diving boat and whales in Pearly Beach. We also spotted a group of penguins at sea and more at Dyer Island as well as plenty of Cape fur seals.
