Cape Town Pelagics is unique: we donate all profits to seabird research and conservation, including Birdife International's Save the Albatross Fund. We've raised over R115 000 for conservation, so by booking a trip with us, you'll make a difference to the seabirds you will see.

Cape Town Pelagics Trip calendar

To join a pelagics trip, please choose from any of the scheduled dates below, and let us know how many places you would like to book. Alternatively, you can enquire about alternative dates and we can setup a trip for you.

The trips are usually run over a weekend, and are scheduled to run the Saturday, with Sunday as the back-up day in case
of unsuitable weather on the Saturday. The trip is one day long, but when booking you will need to be available for both days.

To enquire about availability, please email Amanda at info@capetownpelagics.com.

We can arrange land-based guided day tours with our sister company, Birding Africa, on the alternate day to the pelagic trip. Click for our Birding Africa day trips from Cape Town.


IMPORTANT NOTICE: Due to the Coronavirus pandemic we have cancelled all our trips until further notice. Hopefully we will be back running trips again in the near future.
