Adventure Sports

Welcome to the home of adventure sports. Because of South Africa’s all-year-round sunny weather most people can participate in adventure activities throughout the year.

There are adventure sports for daredevils and there are many others for those that are still young at heart. Abseilling, bungee jumping, hand gliding, paragliding, mountain biking and many others are all here all year round.

Sandboarding
South Africa is not well-endowed with snow, but we make up for it with some excellent sand dunes, and a great outdoor sport called ‘Sandboarding’.

Quad Cruising
With all-year great weather, spectacular outdoor scenery and a diverse variety of habitats, South Africa is a perfect playground for quad biking enthusiasts. There are over 60 different trails to experience, and a good selection of these also offer quad bikes for hire along with crash helmets. In South Africa you can ride in wildlife reserves, through the winelands, along the coast, up mountains and past waterfalls – the possibilities are almost endless, with enticing trails in every province.

Up Close and Personal with the Great Whites
Seeing a Great White for the first time is nothing like the movies. There is no sudden burst of foreboding music, no triangular fin cutting ominously through the water, just the crying of gulls, the braying of seals and the slapping of waves against the hull.

Skiing and Snowboarding
You’re not likely to come to South Africa for the snow. We’re a sun-blessed land and we don't get much snow at all, but what snow we do have, we make good use of.

Bungy jumping in South Africa
It's official - South Africa is home to the highest commercial bungee jump in the world.

Exploring Neptune’s World
For scuba diving enthusiasts, the possibilities are endless: there are coral reefs with brightly-coloured inhabitants that enjoy the warm Indian Ocean, the wrecks of dozens of ships that struck rock along the treacherous Cape south coast, and the icy waters of the Atlantic West Coast that offer a completely different scuba-diving experience.
