Additional Information

If you’re a lover of the ocean, this sailing journey coupled with a flavorful lunch is the ideal means to infuse some extravagance into your Knysna sojourn. This activity gives a perfect vantage point to marvel at the exquisite landscapes and marine species along the internationally acclaimed Garden Route shores. The itinerary carries you across the Knysna lagoon, through the notable Knysna Heads, and into the unbounded expanses of the deep blue sea. After an exhilarating sail, we draw back to the serene waters of the Knysna Estuary where a medley of Mediterranean dishes is served. Please note, all our voyages are conducted on the sea, and are subject to weather and sea conditions. The final decision on these conditions is made by the ship’s captain, and is dependent on the conditions on the day of the expedition. Factors such as tide, wind direction & velocity, and sea undulation influence these conditions, hence the passage through the Knysna Heads isn’t always certain.

Great experience - Was a beautiful experience. The team onboard were so helpful and considerate. Really went out of their way to may us feel comfortable and enjoy! Was the perfect day ant sea and were lucky to see some dolphins! The “lunch” was more of a snack but it was delicious and we had a great time.

My recommendation only in sunny weather - On the day we booked, it was reported that from 3 p.m. onwards there would be overcast skies and only 17 degrees. We had booked the 12 p.m. tour. This was cancelled because there were no other bookings. Instead we were offered the sunset tour. We agreed to it, knowing full well that there would be no sunset because of the clouds. But the weather forecast for the coming days was no better. However, I don't understand why they didn't try to move the evening bookings to midday. The sun was still shining in places then. The trip was pretty wild because of the sea. We had poor visibility and the high waves meant that we were constantly clinging to something because we were being shaken violently. We didn't dare take photos because we were worried that the next wave would drop our phones. It also got very cold, so we needed almost all of our blankets. The skipper was good, knew what he was doing and had experience from an eight-month sailing trip. But for some of us the tour was no fun. If the weather had been nice it would have been great. We did see a few dolphins in the distance. There was very little information. We didn't like the food either. But maybe the other participants did. We were lucky that the clouds came up halfway through sunset. Conclusion: Good skipper, great tour in good weather. Not much fun in heavily overcast skies due to poor visibility and depending on the waves
