An amazing experience! - We had an incredible time kayaking with Cape Kayak! The team were very kind and offered to take us out even though we had missed the initial planned departure, for which we are so grateful! Being so close to multiple beautiful southern right whales, plus dolphins and seals, was truly an incredible, unforgettable experience! Even if we hadn’t had these unbelievable encounters with marine life we would still have loved the beautiful views and experiencing the city from the water! Gavin our guide was excellent and we had an amazing trip! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

Fun Times in Cape Town!!!! - My teenage son and I decided to go kayaking when we were on our vacation in Cape Town. It was our first time in Cape Town. A friend of mine who is from Cape Town recommended this to get a different perspective from water to see Table Mountain and some wildlife which we did. We saw so many dolphins just swimming right next to us. It was a great arm workout too. So much fun! The guides were so warm and welcoming too! I would definitely do it again when we come back.

Amazing way to explore the ocean - It is easy to understand why Cape Kayak Adventures is so well rated, they do their fantastic outings with a passion! And what better backdrop than the spectacular Table Mountain with the city sprawling at its feet. The morning outing was really worth the early wake up. The see was calm and the marine life abundant! Even though no sighting is guaranteed we were very lucky to see the local Heaviside dolphins popping up around us. Seals were fishing as well and a massive sunfish was basking in the sun. Just incredible! It is the perfect morning activity and a great way to explore the spectacular nature at Cape Town’s doorstep. Would definitely do this again as no outing is the same!

Great way to view Table Mountain and sea life - I booked this experience as a surprise for my parents. Even though we'd lived in Cape Town for 20 years, it's something we kept we had to do/had to remeber to do. They absolutely loved it! The guides were friendly, but clear on instructions and rules to keep us safe. We were very lucky to have perfect weather, not a drop of wind, clear water, and sunny skies. We saw dolphins and a seal, and the guides were knowledgeable about the sea life in the area. I would definitely recommend this experience with Kayak Adventure in Cape Town to others, and I will likely do it again in the future!
