3 Days Fresh Oyster Tasting Scenic Boat Ride Coastal Hikes

Let the coast set the pace.

There’s plenty to enjoy along this stretch of Atlantic shore: the quiet coves of Jacobsbaai, oysters fresh from Saldanha Bay and the fishing villages that give the West Coast its character. Take a walk, share a good meal and leave a little room for the unexpected. Our three-day sample journey brings these moments together with thoughtful hosting and carefully chosen stops. We’ll shape the final details around your dates, your group and the things you enjoy.

Day 3 – Vines & Farewell
Morning: Leisurely breakfast with ocean views.
Midday: Begin the return to Cape Town, stopping for wine tasting at Groote Post, Contreberg, or Darling Cellars, where Cape wines meet country hospitality.
