From the first modern rounding of the Cape of Good Hope in 1488 by Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias, Cape Town has been a coveted sailing destination. Sailors onboard the clipper ships that followed the trade route to the Far East and Australia and crew on the deck of state-of-the-art racing yachts have one thing in common: the experience of seeing Cape Town city and Table Mountain from prime vantage point of Table Bay.
Sailing the waters of Cape Town is as accessible as booking a seat on a charter. Whether a sailing catamaran, a twin-mast sailing schooner of a 58ft gaff-rigged schooner, this an experience to remember.
Share the experience of a harbour cruise, bay cruise or sunset cruise with family or special friends. In season, from June to November, a sailing trip to Robben Island for sightings of southern right whales is a must-do.
