Pedal the Prom

KAYAK
Atlantic Outlook
Set off under the cover of darkness in stable double kayaks to watch the sunrise strike Table Mountain from the water. Paddling in an area popular with dolphins, hopefully we will be joined by a marine local or two. The perfect way to get a whole new perspective of Cape Town.
Suitability
No prior Kayak experience needed as we will be using sociable double, stable kayaks. You need to be a confident swimmer.

Grand Africa Beach Café (V&A Waterfront)
Yoga
Rise & Shine
From the Grand Café join our adventure yoga guide on the private inner-city beach enjoying the unique experience of a breathwork and yoga session on the water’s edge to the buzz of the city waking up around you. The emphasis will be waking up and rejuvenating the body and mind. There will be the chance to join other sunrise adventurers as they return from the ocean and trails to assure a great vibey start to your day.
Suitability
All Yoga standards will be catered for on the day.
