Ocean Odyssey Close Encounter Whale Watching

Join us on an unforgettable journey along the spectacular Garden Route coastline in search of the majestic humpback and southern right whales. Knysna plays an important role in South Africa’s whale season, serving as one of the first points of contact for migrating humpback whales along the South African coastline, as identified by the late Professor Peter Best.

Our shores offer a truly unique opportunity to witness these magnificent creatures as they migrate, socialize, and play in their natural habitat. Throughout the experience, our expert skippers and guides share their knowledge and passion for these gentle giants, providing fascinating insights into their behavior, migration patterns, and the marine environment.

To maximise your chances of sightings, we also have a dedicated spotter stationed on the hill, who assists our vessels by locating whales and directing them to active sightings.

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to witness the beauty and grace of humpback and southern right whales in their natural environment.
