Most of the Foreshore precinct used to be under water, but found its business-hub shape through a complicated land-reclamation project. The canal linking the Foreshore to the V&A Waterfront is a reminder of the old seafront. On the Canal Cruise, you will learn more about this watery history and the V&A Waterfront’s underwater gems, such as secret submerged passageways and private islands.

The Canal Cruise makes stops at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC), Harbour Bridge, City Lodge and the One&Only Cape Town hotel – be sure to hop on and hop off as many times as you’d like, as your ticket is valid for a full day.

Spot the seals as they weave in and out of the water, pass international ships visiting our shores, and look out for the SAS Somerset – said to be the only surviving boom defence vessel in the world.

The Harbour Cruise also takes you past the Chavonnes Battery Museum, the African Trading Post shopping centre and the Clock Tower. If you’re lucky enough, you’ll see the giant ship SA Agulhas. She travels to Antarctica for research purposes for three to four months at a time.

The Harbour Cruise is a circular tour without any stops, so don’t hop off the boat for this one!
