SA Forest Adventure - Cape Town

Swapping powder for golden grains of sand, who said you needed mountains to practice your favourite downhill sport? Head to the Cape Town coastline for epic sandboarding lessons with local pros, SA Forest Adventures.

Africa's highest commercial sandboarding destination - Cape Town's epic sand dunes are the perfect place to learn how to ride without the heavy outerwear and pricey lift pass. Skip the hype and grab a board on the Western Cape with adventure lessons on the scorching sands that rise up from the beach.

Offering red hot thrills and amazing views to boot, heading up and down the huge inclines of Houtbay and Betty's Bay, SA Forest Adventure's group lessons give you the chance to try out one of South Africa's most popular new action sport with stunning scenic views (and maybe a few whale sightings if you're lucky!)

Operating on the shores just an hour outside the city, the silver sands of Betty’s Bay boast 250m dunes and stunning views out towards the Marine Protected Area. A beautiful ocean vista on the outskirts of the Kogelberg Nature Reserve and Hottentots-Holland Mountains, sandboarding might be new to the towering dunes - but it's arguably the best way to experience the Western Cape.

For something closer to home, SA Forest Adventures also operate in Hout Bay. Offering group lessons in the shadow of Table Mountain, the cape peninsula is packed with great spots to try out your technique and hang on the beach with resident African penguins!
