Dyer  Island  Cruises & Adventures

Dyer Island Cruisesā€‹ā€‹

Dyer Island Cruises is a premiere boat-based whale watching and conservation organization located near Hermanus in Kleinbaai. Whether whale watching is a once in a lifetime dream or part of a life-long passion, our 10+ years of expertise provides a superior experience for every client. We are the only boat-based whale watching operator that can see the "Marine Big 5" all in one trip, including; whales, dolphins, seals, great white sharks, and African penguins. We are much more that just whale watching!!

Safety is our top priority and we spare no expense. Our vessel, the "Whale Whisperer" is custom designed for boat-based whale watching, safety, and comfort. She is an 11.5 meter aluminium hull wrapped in over-sized pontoons for steady viewing from any side, and is equipped with twin 250 horse power four-stroke engines which are the most ecological-friendly commercial engines in the business.  She comes with an on-board toilet, two additional decks for viewing, and an open wheel house. We limit our trips to an exclusive 20-24 passengers, assuring that each client has a personalized service (but this means bookings are essential!).

The Southern Right Whale viewing and watching season can begin as early as June and run as late as early January - depending on whale activity.  We guarantee sightings from August to November.

In addition to the regular Whale Season Cruises offered by Dyer Island Cruises, we also run eco-trips where we visit our Cape Fur Seal colony (60,000 seals!), dolphin habitat, as well as venture into the deep sea to find the unexpected during our ā€˜offā€™ season (January ā€“ May)!
