Dyer Island Cruises operates from Gansbaai, near Hermanus in the Western Cape, South Africa.
We offer exciting and informative eco-tours around Dyer Island all year (excluding May).
Between July and December we combine the Island experience with boat- based whale watching.
Our whale watching trips are considered not just magical but rewarding too, and are sure to capture everyone's imagination.

We can guarantee Southern right whale sightings between July and December. We also operate great white shark cage diving tours with Marine Dynamics.
Join our team to experience both the whales and the sharks that have made Dyer Island world famous.
We pride ourselves on being both fun and educational.
Each trip is led by experienced marine guides who will share their knowledge with you, keeping emphasis on the welfare and conservation of the animal.
Responsible tourism is our main objective so we focus on conservation, education, community upliftment and safety. |

Anyone who has had the joy of meeting a mighty whale face to face will tell you just how magical it is. Huge, gentle, mysterious, curious. Can you imagine a giant friend, like none other?
As captivated by you as you are by him. A whale longer and wider than the boat in which you sit. An old acquaintance to us, a new discovery for you. A whale of 40 tonnes launching clear of the sparkling blue sea. A majestic tail of 5 metres, saluting you against the backdrop of the rugged hills.
An old enchanter, who may live to 200 years, who has had spellbinding adventures at sea which will be his secrets forever. |
| Please note: Trips can vary from above. Should the whales arrive early or stay late in the year, we will alter our whale watching trips in accordance with the animals.
Every trip is preceded by a brief introductory talk about the route and what to look to out for.
Marine Dynamics specialises Great white shark diving encounters in Gansbaai. Six nautical miles away is Dyer island, possibly the best place in the world to view these magnificent sharks.
