We will start the day by heading towards the Surfers Mecca beach of Muizenberg for some photos, before stopping in the bohemian feel Kalk Bay for a coffee in one of our favourite bakeries/coffee shops. At Kalk Bay, we will walk through this very quaint old holiday town filled with antique shops, galleries, craftsmen, and vendors shouting as we go. Kalk Bay is a working fishing community filled with brightly coloured boats, some noisy seals, and even louder ladies hard at work processing the day’s catch!
From here, we will drive along the coast towards Simon’s Town, where we will search for our own rogue penguins – a splinter colony away from the crowded boardwalks over the main breeding site, on a beach known mostly to locals. Perhaps if the weather is favourable you could test out your balancing skills on a stand-up paddleboard to really get to know the penguins in their own environment. (This is optional). Alternatively, our penguin conservationist will take you on an educational and enlightening penguin walk on the walkways bordering the penguin sanctuary.
Your guide will tell you more about the rich history surrounding this naval town, the museums, and monuments provide plenty of insight into this historical harbour town.
We will then continue on to the Cape of Good Hope. In the Peninsula Reserve, we will enjoy a gentle hike exploring secluded beaches, shipwrecks, and this region’s unique wildlife while on the hunt for the Cape 5 (Ostrich, Baboons, Mountain Zebra, Bontebok, and Tortoise).
Lunch will be a delicious Wild Picnic on the rocks at a secluded beach in a scenic location with an opportunity to explore the crystal-clear rock pools and enjoy animal sightings from your location.
Wind the afternoon down with a visit to the local Noordhoek Farm Village where you can all enjoy a delicious artisanal ice cream at Kristen's Kick-Ass Ice Cream.
To end off the day you will board our unique funky Side-Cars for a fun transfer to feel the wind in your hair. Sidecars are one of the most exciting and adventurous ways to travel back to Cape Town over the scenic coastal toll road of Chapman’s Peak Drive with dramatic landscapes and incredible ocean and mountain views. We will stop at a magical surprise location for an early evening drink as a local taking in the vast Atlantic Ocean as the sun starts to set.
