    5.0· 74 reviews· 2.5 hours

    A 6-kilometre sunset fatbike ride down 185 metres of dunes to the beach, exploring Walker Bay Nature Reserve with opportunities to spot whales during the season.

    The bike tour is fantastic, beautiful, and highly engaging. Dave is an energetic guide who effectively shares his passion for nature; he is also meticulous and caring. An exceptional guide! Thank you for the wonderful experience.873ludovicac
  2. Two-hour whale watching tour in Gansbaai, Gansbaai2

    2. Two-hour whale watching tour in Gansbaai

    4.9· 375 reviews· 2 hours

    Two hours on a small boat along the De Keldar cliffs — observe Southern right whales and diverse marine life up close.

    We didn't spot any whales, but the experience was still wonderful. Since we visited at the end of November, sightings were expected to be rare. However, we were delighted to be accompanied by a large group of over 100 dolphins for about 15 minutes, and we also saw some seals. Along with safety instructions, the guide provided a wealth of information about whales and marine life. Despite the rough seas, we felt secure and well taken care of.holgerk704
