The Explore Catamaran's most in-demand cruise route embarks from Granger Bay and passes by the renowned lighthouse and Sea Point, then advances to Clifton Beach, presenting spectacular sights of Table Mountain and the Twelve Apostles Mountain range en route. Nevertheless, the skipper may choose to navigate other locations within Table Bay and its vicinity, taking into account weather and sea conditions. Ultimately, the skipper holds the authority to determine the final course.

The duration and itinerary of your Explore Catamaran cruise could be influenced by weather circumstances and will be decided by the skipper. We want to assure you that the safety of you and your guests is of utmost importance to us.
