Is It a Good Day to Paddle?
Check the live weather conditions before you visit. We operate weather permitting - calm days with light winds are perfect for pedal boating!
💡 Pro tip: The wind usually picks up midday and then dies down again during the afternoon. That is why we only offer the morning and afternoon timeslots for online bookings.
Santos Beach Paradise
Nestled along the stunning Garden Route, Santos Beach in Mossel Bay is one of South Africa's most beautiful coastal destinations. Our pedal boat station is perfectly positioned to give you breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean.
The bay's natural protection creates calm, crystal-clear waters that are ideal for pedal boating. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned paddler, you'll love gliding across the turquoise waters with the Outeniqua Mountains as your backdrop.
Mossel Bay is famous for its year-round sunshine (the Guinness Book of Records once listed it as having the second-mildest climate in the world after Hawaii!), making it the perfect spot for water activities any time of year.
