Knysna Heads Cruise

Published on Sep, 2024

This experience was truly something to remember. The tour guide gave us a good overview of the area and pointed put the Seals. The best part was leaving the lagoon into the sea and the joy our son experienced in the waves. This is a must when you're in Knysna

A great adventure
