“Our favourite!” The 2 hour Storms River Kayak & Lilo Adventure is our most popular adventure activity in Tsitsikamma National Park! If you are keen to explore deeper into the Storms River Gorge in Tsitsikamma, and experience the long, deep, quiet pools, then the Kayak and Lilo trip is for you!
We paddle from the Harbour next to the small beach across the ocean, then under the Suspension Bridge and up the beautiful Storms River Mouth. Please note that if the sea is rough, you have to hike to the Suspension Bridge (along a boardwalked trail), where we then hike along the river from the suspension bridge up to the jetty to where you then get on onto your kayaks. This 1km hike takes about 30 min
This is where the true Kayaking adventure begins – paddling the Storms River, the pinnacle of Tsitsikamma National Park. After waving to all the tourists photographing you from the Suspension Bridge, we continue the kayak trip up the Stormsriver. We paddle right into the bats cave and spend time gazing up at the magnificent and spectacular cliffs all around us, all from the comfort of our double sit-on-top kayaks.
At the low-water point we disembark our kayaks and we jump on our unique Lilo’s. (a Lilo is an inflatable mattress that we’ve had specially made for this trip). From here we walk and float over a short section of rocks and simply wade deeper up the river on the Lilo’s. What a stunning view it is, laying on a Lilo at water level, and gazing up to cliffs that touch the sky! At reaching a certain point, we simply turn our Lilo’s around and float back down river to our Kayaks!

It was a great experience and enjoyable moment. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and very friendly. Thank you - Honore Bena
we absolutely loved our experience and our guides made it all the more memorable with their little stories and anecdotes! will highly recommend this experience to anyone - remember to take a towel and a spare set of clothes! - Lizelle Botten
We really appreciated the tour. Our guide was very experience and did connect to the people. The first and last bit is not an easy bit but we managed it well with the kids starting from 11 years. - Sonja Engels
Loved the experience. I felt it was professionally run and that our guides Clinton and Rowan were excellent, informative and made us feel safe. It was fun. The only thing is that as a foreigner, the entry to the National park to get to this activity is very expensive, which like us, all you are coming for is this activity makes it a significant amount. It would be great if you could have an agreement to combine costs as we came for this NOT the entrance to the park. - Nevine

The worlds best bungy jump and the most amazing experience of your life!
The view from Africa’s highest bridge captures all the majesty and tranquility of the Bloukrans River valley. Your experience starts with a zipline out to the to top of the bridge arch. The bungy jump makes use of a pendulum system to ensure the smoothest, most comfortable bungee jump possible. After the initial freefall, you are pulled into a giant pendulum motion and then into the big rebound.
Jumpers are secured in a full-body harness combined with a separate ankle connection to the bungy cord. For the last 25 years we have kept all our jumpers safe and secure.
All clients are requested to arrive on site one hour prior to the booked jump time.*
Photo and video footage is available for viewing and purchase in our retail shop after your jump. (All digital products are sent via SMS and email which you can instantly download).
Minimum weight is 35kg
My bungee jumping experience was incredible and full of adrenaline! From the moment I arrived at the location, the team was very attentive, explaining all the safety procedures and answering all my questions. Despite the nerves and butterflies, I felt very confident because of the thorough equipment checks and the detailed instructions. The sensation of free-falling is indescribable! Those initial seconds are pure exhilaration and adrenaline, a mix of fear and total freedom. The view from up there is spectacular, and during the jump, time seems to slow down, allowing you to savor every moment. The energy and relief I felt when being pulled back up were unique, something only those who've experienced it can truly understand. For anyone looking to step outside their comfort zone, I highly recommend it! The experience feels safe and provides a huge sense of personal achievement. I definitely want to do it again! - Tania Pires

Ik was a great experience!! - C. Cuppen
Would I do it again...without thinking twice, Yes! This experience is not something you can explain to others. They have to feel the thrill for themselves. Only adrenaline junkies would understand! - Sylvia Rockman
Absolutely brilliant from beginning to end, such fun. The staff are amazing, totally putting you at your ease, explaining everything and with the utmost safety carried out, so professional. Lovely people, such a blast, party atmosphere on the bridge, a very careful balance (with the seriousness of safety). Hats off to ALL the staff working there, thanks we had a great time. - Nevine Hunt
