✨ABOUT THE ADVENTURE ON OFFER ?
#########################

Embark on a breathtaking journey with Paddle Experience, a guided kayak tour from Buffels Bay to the Cape Point lighthouses. This four-hour adventure offers an intimate encounter with the dramatic coastal beauty of the Cape Point Nature Reserve. Paddling beneath towering cliffs and along rugged shorelines, participants will explore hidden coves, tranquil beaches, and marine ecosystems teeming with life. Your expert guide provides insights into the region’s unique biodiversity, with opportunities to observe seabirds, marine mammals, and other coastal wildlife in their natural habitat—making this a deeply immersive experience that blends active exploration with ecological discovery.


The tour follows an out-and-back route beginning at the Buffels slipway inside Table Mountain National Park. Be sure to bring your Wild Card, Green Card, or have your entry fee ready for access. From the protected launch site, the group heads out along the coastline toward Cape Point. If conditions allow, paddlers may venture into a sea cave en route and continue just beyond the Point itself. The total distance covered is approximately 12.5 km, offering a rewarding challenge for those with prior kayaking experience.


Reaching Cape Point by kayak is a truly unforgettable experience. This iconic location marks a symbolic meeting point between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and seeing the lighthouse from the water evokes a sense of awe and adventure. The open sea surrounding the Point is vast and elemental, and the journey offers not only scenic grandeur but also a profound connection to the natural forces that shape this coastline. With its combination of geological drama, wildlife encounters, and guided expertise, this tour is a standout offering for nature lovers and paddling enthusiasts alike.
