You will be welcomed at the airport and taken to Saltycrax Backpackers.

DAY 2:

After helping yourself to breakfast, a qualified kite surfing instructor will meet you. He will take you to the world famous Kite Beach that has an amazing backdrop of Table Mountain and a steady supply of wind and waves.

Your first day of lessons will begin with:

Lesson 1: Introduction to Kite boarding.

Includes safety, equipment setup, understanding the wind and land based flying.

Lesson 2: Water introduction

Includes large kite handling, self-launch and body dragging through the water.

DAY 3:

Today you complete your kite surfing course. Your final day of lessons include:

Lesson 3: Water Skills

Includes advanced body dragging, water re-launch and basic board skills.

Lesson 4: Board Basics

Includes first water starts on a board and first ride.

Lesson 5: Supervised Riding and Tips

You will now be an IKO accredited kitesurfer and will receive a certificate and card allowing you to kite anywhere in the world!

DAY 4:

Boulder hopping, wading, swimming, climbing, and jumping off cliffs from 3-15 metres high is what you will be doing.

Kloofing, otherwise known as canyoning, is a uniquely Western Cape experience. It involves getting yourself down a river gorge, one that is fast flowing but with not enough water for kayaking.

This is a full day of great fun and extreme adventure.

DAY 5:

After breakfast and an early start, we go to Atlantis, passing the Melkbos beach along the way. Your sand boarding instructor will show you how to ride down the dunes. We then hit the beach for lunch and to wash the sand off with surf lessons.
