Stand up paddling, also well known by its acronym SUP, is one of those activities you MUST give a go, especially on a relaxed sunny summer day.

SUPing requires more balance and coordination than strength, and can generally be “mastered” in 30 minutes.

It’s also a great way to see the seals here in Blouberg in their natural habitat.

Ever heard of paragliding?

Well this is the same thing, except you have an engine attached to your back. There is only one company that Coastline Kitesurfing recommends and that is Parapax.

They have tandem flights taking place in a number of different location, Blouberg being one of them. In our opinion this is one of the most beautiful and scenic activities you will do whilst in Cape Town.
