Seven ways to meet the Cape
From drifting through the kelp forest to paddling the coast, every trip is set up around the conditions on the day.
Kelp snorkelling tours
Float above the golden canopy with a guide. No diving certification needed.
Kelp diving
Go beneath the canopy into the cold, clear Atlantic forest.
Surfing
Catch Cape waves with a local who knows which break is working.
Foiling
Rise above the water on a hydrofoil board with a rider who knows the sport.
Kayak tours
Paddle along the coastline and explore at water level.
SUP
Stand-up paddleboarding on calm water, at your own pace.
Peninsula tours
See the best of the Cape Peninsula on a guided day out.
Foiling with Mikyle
Mikyle Cape brings five years of foiling experience from Dubai to Cape Town.
A foil board lifts you above the water on a hydrofoil, so you glide over the surface instead of through it.

The kelp forests off Cape Town are home to urchins, anemones, starfish and shoals of fish, all moving in the light that filters down through the canopy.
