Sailing around the beautiful bay in a surprisingly old but exceptionally well looked after boat. - Unfortunately we were delayed, due to circumstance out of our control. Peter was very accommodating with us & didn’t charge us again as we rescheduled. Peter was a very knowledgeable, friendly person who made the trip very special with his wealth of knowledge & easy manner. I would definitely recommend this boat ride. Nick & Joan B

Perfect hour tour to the Heads. Very informative tour and intimate as well. I highly recommend it - The best boat cruise I have ever experienced in comparison to Durban and Cape Town cruises that I have done before. Very intimate and the Caption was very informative about the surrounding area as well. I highly recommend it.

Great break - Well, as per usual, tripadvisor did not fail us! We booked this tour last-minute on a whim after a long drive, and what a great break it was - beautiful weather, beautiful boat, great guide (Peter) - very knowledgeable as he lives here, plus he recommended a seaside grill type of place for lunch that proved to be just what we needed. A perfect break!

Very nice cruise to the Heads & back - We were lucky to a sunny calm day for our 1hr cruise. Blankets were available as it did get chilly at the Heads. Dillon was a very good engaging guide. Recommend
