The Plett Kayak & Hike Camino – unique 4 days of kayaking and hiking on the Garden Route.
(Formerly known as the Cape Kayak and Hike Camino)
There’s no better way to experience the Garden Route than on an eco- friendly kayak and hiking tour around Plettenberg Bay. Discover why Plett is the jewel in the crown of this region.
Paddle the Plett lagoon along the Baya Formosa, named by the early Portuguese seafarers, the Bitou Estuary, cross the breath-taking Keurbooms Gorge, explore Plett’s three islands with secret pools formed in conglomerate rock and walk to the Robberg Peninsula along Plett’s Blue Flag beaches whilst enjoying the comfort of select 3-4 Star accommodation en route.
With the benefit of their experience over many years Johan and Teresa Loots have put together a sustainable route using high quality, award winning kayaks, which encompasses the best of the area.
The Plett Kayak & Hike Camino includes four days of kayaking and hiking and three nights’ accommodation, all meals, equipment and guides. The tour covers approximately 50 km of relaxed kayaking and beachside hiking which will thrill paddlers, hikers, nature and bird lovers alike.
Johan’s books A Practical Guide to Sea Kayaking in Southern Africa and An Essential Guide to Sea Kayaking, which has been translated into five languages, have helped to set up kayak operations in Southern Africa, Namibia, Principe, Mozambique, Tanzania, Mauritius and Madagascar, as well as in Galicia in Spain along the famous Camino de Santiago.
This Camino is suited to all adventurous persons from 18+ as well as to families, friends and independent tour and corporate groups. Younger and physically challenged persons can be accommodated by special arrangements.
