Adventure
Shark Diving
Between the islands of Geyser Rock and Dyer Island is a narrow and shallow channel called Shark Alley – reputed to be the world’s best place for Great White shark cage diving.
Due to the resident seal colonies in the area, Shark Alley has been dubbed the “supermarket for sharks”. A short boat ride from Kleinbaai, Shark Alley is ideal for those who wish to experience the thrill of getting up close and personal with these giant predators. Your cage dive takes place just metres below the water’s surface, so no dive experience is necessary.
For the Ladies
For the ladies who do not wish to go fishing or shark diving, South Africa has a wealth of luxuries for the discerning traveller. We have some of the world’s best spa facilities; these treatments can even be enjoyed outside, overlooking spectacular scenery in the Winelands or the city looking onto the Twelve Apostles mountain range.
We can arrange spa treatments, including retreats at health resorts or shorter treatments. We also have lovely shopping facilities and can arrange for you to visit some of our “homegrown” designers, some of whom have an international following.
As well as its natural beauty, South Africa is known for its rich mineral deposits, particularly gold and diamonds. With our guidance, great deals can be found. We will make sure your shopping experience is safe and hassle-free.
