Boulder beach

You can't visit Cape Town without going to Boulder Beach, the penguin beach. It's an activity that attracts a lot of tourists and that's normal! Seeing penguins in South Africa seems unreal, that's why you have to go to Boulder Beach.

In 1982, some of these penguins settled on soft white sand between large boulders of granite that protected the beach from wind and storm surges. Currently, the population is estimated at 2,000 or 3,000 individuals. Unfortunately, due t...

Shark cage experience

The shark cage as seen by one of our French clients:

I really enjoyed this experience, seeing a shark for the first time is surprising but I was not scared. The safety instructions are given to us before getting on the boat which can give confidence to the most stressed. The sharks I saw were not very aggressive which gives a feeling of security once in the cage. To my great surprise I was able to see a Menta ray. The company creates a good group atmosphere. For the more curious, we...

Enjoy a surfing session in Muizenberg

Enjoy a surfing session in Muizenberg: 

Muizenberg is without doubt one of the best spots in the world to learn to surf. The waves here are some of the smoothest in Cape Town, giving the surfer the opportunity to take their time getting up on the board. This surf spot is particularly suited to surfers who use a longboard. 

Around Muizenberg beach you can find many shops that rent surfboards and wetsuits at very good prices. In addition, you can find some very goo...

Solar panels at the service of the company, but not only...

African Eagle has more than 80 solar panels currently. It produces 20 KwH, which makes it self-sufficient in energy. The excess power produced is redirected to the Eskom grid therefore helping the load shedding situation in South Africa. The panels were installed by African Eagle 5 years ago, with a total of 864 000 Kw produced since the installation.  This is a long term financial and environmental benefit. It is an eco-friendly approach.

A full day E-Biking in the winelands of Stellenbosch

On a windy day in Cape Town I got up to get ready for my first electric bike tour ever. I had been told these were quite fun but for a strange reason I always thought it was something for lazy people. Though I thought I’d give it a try and I combined this first experience with a couple wine tastings in the wine region of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek as I love wine and mountains.

We arrived at Stellenbosch, South Africa’s second-oldest town while the weather changed to a...
