Secret Seal Safari in Dover, Kent

Set off on a nature-spotting trip, sailing along the White Cliffs of Dover in a RIB. After a safety briefing, get kitted out in a lifejacket and head out under the iconic cliffs along the breathtaking coastline. Turn north after Walmer, passing Deal and getting a good look at the award-winning Deal Pier. Onward to Sandwich Bay, entering the mouth of the River Stour through Pegwell Bay, a large nature reserve perfect for spotting wildlife like migrating waders and wildfowl. Sail silently past a secret seal colony, experiencing these beautiful creatures' natural inquisitiveness as they bask on the river bank and pop up around the boat to get a good look. On the way back, hold on tight as the skipper speeds up and blasts the RIB all the way back.
