The route is a circular trail along the Robberg peninsula with two shorter variations available ranging from easy to moderate. We will also Salt River Mouth as part of the tour but there are many more mountain trails, shopping malls, romantic walks on endless white sand beaches… the list goes on. If you talk the walk talk, your feet will stay busy every step of the way 🙂

No reason for a long face if you are a horse riding fanatic. Again you’ll have different terrain to choose from and but one of the favorites would be riding on the beach in Jeffreys Bay.

Sandboarding

Sandboarding is a very fun adventure sport! All it takes to sandboard is a positive attitude, a board strapped to your feet after a few basic instructions and you will be blasting down a sand dune in no time at all. It’s a board sport similar to snowboarding but takes place in desert areas or coastal areas with beach dunes. You’ll have a few opportunities to rip down some beach dunes in South Africa.
