Imagine sailing around in style with a view good enough to put on a postcard. We offer a more comfortable and spacious environment for Ocean Safari experience onboard Explore Catamaran, to accommodate the entire family.

Departure time
10h30 – 12h00 (Boarding time 15 minutes prior departure time)
We do not feed or chum the waters to attract the seals, so they are never 100% guaranteed. The Skipper & guides try their utmost best to find and show you the amazing seals and other marine life. The route is heading out to the Oudekraal area to one of the seal colonies dotted around Cape Town, this one in particular is called Strawberry Rocks. The trip is very much weather dependent and at the discretion of the Skipper, who will make the final call should sea conditions change unfavorably whilst on route to the site. If sea conditions do not allow to get into the water, the trip will be converted to an Ocean Safari and the search of marine life will begin, otherwise the entire boat trip will be cancelled and you will head back to the V&A Waterfront. We do not want you to miss out on the potential of experiencing the spectacular marine life Cape Town has to offer, whether it be in or on top of the water.
Cape Town has extremely unpredictable weather which changes on a daily basis throughout the year. The safety of our clients is Top Priority and we assess ocean conditions constantly to determine most favorable days and times. Any potential changes to your booking will be communicated with as much notice as possible. It is strongly advised to allow flexibility for this trip.

How do we get off at the beach?
For our island stops, we use a series of steps from the front of our boat to the sand. Typically, you can step right from the boat/steps to the sand. However, on occasion, it may be up to ankle deep.
What should we wear?
Comfort is key! Swimming is discouraged during the island stop due to strong tidal currents. Guests are encouraged to dress as they feel comfortable for their evening with easily removable shoes for their walk on the beach. Keep in mind, being on the water in the evening is about 10 degrees colder than is forecasted, so a windbreaker or light jacket is always safe.
Is your vessel handicap accessible?
Unfortunately we are not handicap accessible at this time. Guests with limited mobility (i.e. walkers, canes) should call our office prior to booking. A good rule of thumb is if the limited mobility passenger is able to make it up 2-3 standard stairs with assistance. Our crew is always here to help and eager to share our memorable trip with all!

Experience Essex from the water perspective and take a cruise on the Connecticut River. As boaters ourselves we’ve logged many hours on this waterway and each time marvel at how very special it is: the time around sunset is magical!
You may choose between two completely different vessels to enjoy the River! Both are docked at the Connecticut River Museum, mere steps from our front door!

+ RiverQuest, is an extremely safe, quiet, intimate 64′ vessel, certified to carry up to 65 passengers. Its twin catamaran design makes it stable and comfortable. Fully powered by motor.
Departure is at 6:00 pm for either boat.
All departures are subject to weather conditions.
The Sunset Cruise Package includes:
- an overnight stay in one of our charming standard rooms *
- continental breakfast for two
- two round-trip tickets for passage aboard Onrust or RiverQuest
* Room upgrades are available for an additional charge.
Weekday rate: $325
