Full description
Enjoy a unique view of the coast of Cape Town from the sea while relaxing and sipping on local sparkling wine on this sunset cruise. Admire the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean that stretches away from the majestic Table Mountain range. The sailboats Esperance and Serenity One follow the wind for this cruise, and therefore the destination is dependent on the weather at the time of the cruise. Your captain will let you know before departure your expected direction, but a typical Cape Town summer wind blows from the southeast. First, you'll leave the harbor and sail across Table Bay towards Milnerton Lighthouse, returning to the protection of the Granger Bay in the lee of Table Mountain to watch the sun set, and then motor back to the waterfront. In the winter months, with the Northwester prevalent, the direction will likely be towards the Clifton coastline or the Robben Island Coastline. This cruise will also return to Granger Bay and the Waterfront. On some occasions the weather may require the use of a motorboat, in which case the boat will cruise slowly along the Atlantic seaboard towards Clifton beach and then return. On all trips your skipper and crew will do their best, weather dependent, to give you the best view of the spectacular sunset over the sea - you won't believe the beauty of this sight until you experience it yourself! For all the vessels, when the seas are running too high or the wind is unpleasantly strong, instead of heading into Table Bay the destination is the Cape Town Harbor; a perfect alternative offering magical views of Table Mountain and the lights of Cape Town and the harbor in the evening. In extreme conditions the skipper will take every aspect into account, and even stay dockside to ensure the safety of the passengers.

Know before you go

  • It's always a good idea to bring a warm jacket for the cruise as it may be colder on the return journey to the harbor. Do not forget to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen.
  • Please wear comfortable shoes and no high heels (for your safety)
  • Some cruises do not have a dedicated boat for the cruise and rely on a pool of available vessels to cover fluctuations in weather, seasonal passenger numbers, and planned maintenance

I had a wonderful time on this tour, there was an amazing vibe throughout the whole group and our captain, Edmund, and the rest of the crew were wonderful. Very attentive and friendly. The views were gorgeous and we even glimpsed a sun fish! And of course sparkling wine. I would definitely recommend and go again.

Great 90 minutes with a motivated crew, good quality sparkling wine was served in sufficient quantities. The panorama of Cape Town and the mountains can be wonderfully viewed from the sea. Music is played on board and you can dance along to your heart's content...This is Time for Africa. A trip that is worth the money, great!

Skipper and crew were very nice. When dolphins were seen on the way, the skipper turned away from the original course so that we could see them up close and stayed there until the dolphins were no longer interested. Great tour, highly recommended!
