5.Marine Big 5 Safari: Self-Drive

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 68 reviews · from $129

Set out from Gansbaai for whales, sharks, seals, penguins, and dolphins, with a marine biologist, warm food, and a penguin sanctuary visit.

“A great way to experience marine life in South Africa while supporting conservation and research efforts. The area is beautiful from the boat. Come during whale season if you can. If not you may still see the Bryde’s Whale. Be sure to visit the South African Penguin and Seabird Sanctuary. These birds are threatened with becoming extinct in the wild soon and need support.”
