Sailing across Knysna’s expansive liquid landscape on board Springtide Charter’s sleek 50ft mono hull yacht is a truly memorable experience. A definite must do activity when visiting the Garden Route. Departing daily from the popular Knysna Waterfront, Springtide Charters offers a variety of different sailing charter options. Our highly experienced crew will take to the helm so you can relax and take in the splendour of our rugged coastline; sailing, salt air and scenery all an exhilarating combination.
Knysna is one of South Africa’s premier whale watching destinations, its indigo depths teeming with hundreds of migrating whales.

Great service and friendly staff. As it was the very end of the season we didn't see any Whales or Dolphins. But we enjoyed to views and saw plenty of birds, a Cape Fur Seal and beautiful coastline - up close at times. Definitely would recommend this trip and felt confident and safe with the boat handlers.

We had a great time & saw a Bryde Whale towards the end of our trip. The Crew were brilliant at giving us points to look out for the whales & very interesting facts too. Think we were lucky as migration season had begun. Great briefing before we got onboard. A great couple of hours to our fabulous South African Holiday. Thank you

We were on holiday in Wilderness and decided to go out on the boat. From the front of office staff to the pre-boarding briefing to the Skipper and his team we could not have asked for more! They were professional, kind and courteous and they all combined to make this trip a special day in our holiday. Thanks Guys and Girls ...... You are great?
