Overview

If you enjoy sailing, this experience, followed by a delicious lunch, is the perfect way to bring a little luxury into your Knysna adventure. This activity also provides an ideal way to view the spectacular scenery and marine life of the world-renowned Garden Route coastline. The route takes you over the Knysna lagoon, through the impressive Knysna Heads and out into the true freedom of the open ocean.  After a magnificent sail, we return to the calmer waters of the Knysna Estuary and serve a delicious feast of Mediterranean style cuisine. All our trips are ocean-going trips and are weather and sea conditions dependent. Only the skipper of the vessel can make a judgment call on these conditions which are determined on the day of the charter. Conditions are influenced by tide, wind direction & speed, and sea swell, therefore going out through the Knysna Heads is never guaranteed.

What's included

  • A light lunch of savoury snacks, seasonal fruits and cheeses
  • Gratuities
  • Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are available on board at the cash bar. The crew will run a tab during the charter and payment will be taken at the end of the charter

  2. Knysna Heads
    Pass by
    The Knysna Heads is our only passage to sea, if sea and weather conditions allow we will proceed through the Knysna Heads and out into the Indian Ocean for some ultimate sailing
  3. Knysna Lagoon
    Pass by
    Once we depart from the Knysna Waterfront we sail through the Knysna Lagoon and make our way towards the Knysna Heads. In the event of poor sea conditions at the Knysna Heads that prevents us from exiting the heads and going out to sea, we will carry on the charter with in the Knysna Lagoon. Typically on every charter, the light lunch is served on our way back to the Knysna Waterfront on the Knysna lagoon.
