The guides are with you in the water during the entire experience, making sure you are having a great time.

Highly recommended.

Published on Mar, 2025

Such a great experience from start to finish. Ash was incredibly accommodating and helpful, Chris the Skipper also very friendly and lovely. Great briefing of what to expect when in the water. Ash took loads of photos which was awesome. I had a little float which gives confidence in open water (so great activity even if you're not a strong swimmer). Seal pups were the cutest.

Well worth doing

Excellent organisation and kit was all provided, full and informative briefing so knew all of the dos and don’ts. The swimming with the seals was an amazing experience and felt safe throughout as the guides were excellent and you have plenty of time to interact and you also get free photos, excellent value for money and what an awesome experience
