Whale, Dolphin & River Cruises in Gqeberha
Blu-Pebbles Tours and Transfer offers guided boat cruises in and around Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth), including whale and dolphin watching in Algoa Bay, African penguin colonies, and a more tranquil river cruise along the Sundays River. Departures are arranged from the Nelson Mandela Bay Yacht Club or directly from your accommodation.
Algoa Bay is part of the Addo Elephant National Park Marine Protected Area, home to seasonal whale sightings, resident dolphin pods, and one of the world’s largest African penguin breeding colonies. For a calmer experience, our Sundays River cruise offers scenic wildlife viewing in a quieter, more sheltered setting. Several cruises can also be combined with a same-day Addo Elephant National Park safari for a full ocean-and-savannah day.
Algoa Bay’s protected waters support seasonal whale migrations, year-round dolphin pods, and African penguins, making it one of the richest stretches of coastline in South Africa for marine wildlife viewing. Cruises are small-group and guided, with conservation-focused commentary throughout.
Cruise the protected waters of Algoa Bay for seasonal whale sightings and resident dolphin pods, with sightings shaped by the unpredictable nature of marine wildlife.
