The Experience
The catamaran leaves the historic V&A Waterfront and heads out into Table Bay, where the skipper takes a slow route that lets you spot marine life—whales, dolphins, sunfish—while Table Mountain and the city skyline stay in view. The crew points out what's around you as the light changes. You're on deck the whole time, so there's no missing the moment the sun hits the water.
Two glasses of Prosecco arrive as the sun sets, and you raise a glass while the boat drifts back toward the harbor. The return is slow enough that you watch Cape Town's lights come on across the water and the harbor lights reflect off the bay. The whole outing runs 90 minutes from departure to return.
What’s included
- Two glasses of complimentary Prosecco per guest.
- a live English-speaking guide and knowledgeable crew.
