Such an amazing way to see the Knysna Heads! 🌊 We looked at a few options and this was definitely the most exciting — heading out into the open sea. And as a bonus, we got to sail alongside a school of wild dolphins! 🐬 Thanks to our Captain Benjamin!
A wonderful boat ride

Was a lovely experience, we did the sunset cruise with my 3 year old. The skipper was super friendly, made sure my little one had a life jacket, we also managed to see some seals. I would definitely recommend it.
Great experience!

Leandi was exceptionally good at giving us a 5 star experience! Her service was great. I would definitely come back to Ocean Sailing Charters. Boat was nice and clean, drinks were offered and we saw a lot of great views.
The perfect choice for a must-do activity in Knysna!

We were there on the 18th of December 2024 and we literally had one of our best boat tour experiences ever, which is compared on a global scale! First of all our skipper (his name was Jandre if I remember correctly) had a great personality. He was extremely kind and also knowledgeable regarding the history and the natural life of the area, as well as the things-to-do around the area etc. The boat itself was very classy and up to scratch (was even like brand new). The entire sail was so comfortable and peaceful, and the volume of the music played was perfectly set, which was playing a great playlist that was enjoyed by all the guests of a variety from 8 to 50 years old :) Lastly, the wine that they are selling on board was only a few bucks over the shop price (one would expect to pay 2x - 3x of the shop price, when you are on board). Long story short, we would strongly recommend to take a tour with Ocean Sailing Charters.. Great job guys, keep up the good work!!
Beautiful and Calming

It was a bucket list fulfilling rolercoaster ride. We enjoyed it immensely and it cured our wanderlust for the day. It wasn’t only the trip, but also the crew, Janré and the skipper were extremely friendly and helpful.
Highly recommended
