Unlike
a canoe the kayak, classically used by the Eskimos, is closed on top and
the occupant remains dry.

No
prior experience is required to Kayak. One and two man craft are
available. The jagered Peninsula Coast-line provides for endless exciting
Kayaking opportunities.
Popular 2 hour exertions
are available in Table Bay and Sea Point from the comfort of the Victoria
and Alfred Waterfront. The Kayaks can come to you at the Beach House for a
2 or 4 hour exploration of Kommetjie
Bay, Slangkop and
Noordhoek.
Experienced
guides can take you from Simons Town, starting off between the penguins to
Cape Point. However the ultimate kayaking experience is from Buffel's Baai
in the Cape of Good Hope
Reserve, all the way round Cape Point to
Olifantsbos. With the view of Cape Point with its
steep cliffs from the
sea one is reminded why Sir Francis Drake called it the "Fairest Cape
in all the World". |
