Kaskazi Kayaks
The mission is to ensure the continued development of sea kayaking as a fun filled, safe recreational activity for people of all ages and all fitness levels.
The kayaks are handcrafted using a variety of composites including glass fiber, carbon fiber and kevlar bonded with polyester or epoxy resins. We are a relatively low volume manufacturer and therefore are able to be very responsive to customer feedback and requirements. Almost every kayak we build is customized to order. Our commitment to quality is evidenced by our guaranteed buyback policy and unconditional warranty on our kayaks.

A really special paddle with Dirk and the team when we got to see whales, a first for me and the whole group. It was breathtaking to be in the company of such awesome creatures (the whales, not Dirk etc!). As usual, we felt well-led and most importantly the guides pointed out the things we failed to see. Oh, and we sae dolphins too. I have been doing this paddocking;e every time I come to Cape Town, well over ten times, and it is never boring. note, pic not from this trip

It was just the perfect day. Yes there was penguins, loads of dolphins, and birds. The instructors are friendly and helpful and will take some pics so that you can focus on the views. Personally, I would still recommend taking some motion / sea sickness tablets just to make sure you feel good and enjoy the full trip.

We had a wonderful time with the morning kajak session. Be aware that the kajak tour is not with sunrise (we did it beginning of March and sun was already up), but this is not any problem. We saw +/- 100 dolphins during our tour, which was amazing. So nice to see the city wake up with the beautiful view of Table Mountain on the background. Would highly recommend this activity during your stay in Cape Town.

First time round the weather didn't play along and our kayaking experience was rescheduled with minimal effort. When we did manage to go kayaking it was an amazing experience. The kayaking required little skill and one had absolute confidence in the guides Dirk and Rudi. On the day we got to go the weather was outstanding, we saw a few seals however first prize was when we found ourselves in the middle of a pod of dolphins whose interaction with the group was a true highlight. To view Cape Town from the ocean was a bonus too. I
