Experience Overview:
Chapmans Peak ExplorerThe inaccessible coastline around Chapman’s Peak is arguably the most scenic in Cape Town and we get to explore it
by kayak! You’ll spot hidden beaches and caves and the water is often so clear you can see right to the bottom! This is an in and out paddle as we don’t have many places to land but it offers the most spectacular views of the bay looking over the Sentinel.
Our kayak trips are suited to all skill levels and we have purchased locally designed and manufactured double sit on top kayaks from Vagabond kayaks. These are super stable, comfortable and fast kayaks with ample room for storage. We have developed three routes around the peninsular so if conditions are not suitable, we can often offer an alternative route.
Minimum group size is 4 guests for the activity to go ahead. If the amount is not reached, we will contact you to reschedule.
