Sometimes it’s difficult to avoid a little hyperbole when describing a specific Waterfront Charters experience… but we’ll do our best to stick to the facts. 😉 Once you’ve experienced it for yourself, you can add the appropriate adjectives!

The scenario: You need a venue for the perfect party, so you charter one of our luxurious catamarans. 🛥️🥂

You and your guests spend three hours aboard, cruising leisurely along the Cape coastline towards Clifton. The onboard DJ reads the crowd perfectly and provides the ideal soundtrack to set the scene.

Once at Clifton Bay, the crew drops anchor just off the beach and the fun really begins. 🏖️🌊 Swimming, dancing, relaxing, chilled cocktails and a selection of other beverages keep everyone refreshed, while your choice of snacks hits the spot. 🍹🕺

And then there’s the view. The beach, the ocean and the mountains create a backdrop that is, quite simply, unparalleled. (Not hyperbole. Fact.) 😉⛰️

The jealous gaze of the beach-bound crowd is just further confirmation that you’re in the best possible position to enjoy life. 😎

The cruise back to the V&A is every bit as appealing, and once docked, your partygoers will no doubt agree: this was the party to beat all parties.🎉🥂

☀️ Summer is approaching!

Check out https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise-category/private-charters/ check your diary, choose the vessel that appeals most and, with just a couple more clicks, you’ll be chartered and set up for the party adventure of a lifetime.

Then call your friends.

🌞 ⛵️ Any form of transport, no matter how modern and loaded with special features, is only as good as the pilot, driver or skipper that is at the controls. At Waterfront Charters we have an incredible range of vessels, all purpose designed to offer pleasure, comfort, reliability and – above all – safety. But without highly trained skippers and crew members, these features would never be utilised fully or correctly.

That is why we are never complacent about training. Regardless of experience, from old salts to enthusiastic youngsters, our crews are regularly put through rigorous training procedures, covering everything: safety procedures, maritime law, customer care, navigation – you name it. Our sole aim is to offer all our guests the best possible cruises in perfect safety, and every crew member will do their best to ensure the best possible outcome under any circumstance.

So check out our wide range of scheduled cruises and private charter options: go to www.waterfrontcharters.co.za to book online and leave the rest to us. Our safety record is above question, and we intend to keep it that way through dedicated teamwork and constant education.

✨🌊 Few vessels make an entrance quite like Eclipse, one of the luxurious additions to the fleet.

A 42ft (13m) motor-powered cat, she features spacious decks for partying or chilling and a for’ard trampoline for reclined relaxation as you gently cruise the Atlantic.

Fitted with state-of-the-art controls and navigational equipment she is an incredibly stable vessel, ideal for sunset cruises, Clifton adventures and – of course – private parties on the Atlantic coastline for up to 40 guests.

With a refreshment area amidships catering is a breeze, and we can add a top DJ to the mix if you are looking for ideal accompanying sounds. 🎶

Eclipse is a beauty: there is no better description, and her expert skipper and crew members will ensure the perfect cruise, be it a scheduled event or private charter. ✨

Check out https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise/pc-eclipse/ for full details of Eclipse and our cruises – it’s the ultimate in ocean experiences. 🌊

🌊✨ Serenity: noun. A state of utter calm and unruffled repose.

At , we found a way to take the dictionary definition of serenity and translate it into reality. Meet Serenity One, our luxury sailing catamaran – where the elegant lines of her twin hulls combine style and safety, while her mainsail and jib billow gently from the central mast as she glides quietly and smoothly over the Atlantic swells. ⛵️

Capable of hosting up to 40 guests in comfort, she has everything you need for an unforgettable day on the water – from a refreshment area to onboard music.

For the ultimate in serene cruising, a Serenity One Clifton Cruise is hard to beat: a breeze-driven sail along the Cape coastline to Clifton Bay, followed by swimming, dancing, chilling on the forward trampoline, and sipping ice-cold cocktails while taking in the beauty of Clifton Beach and the mountain backdrop. 🍹☀️🏖️

It doesn’t get much better than this.

And the best part? It’s simplicity itself to arrange. Head to https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise-category/private-charters/ and book your escape with a few easy steps

Oh, and summer is coming… 🌞
Clifton beckons. 💙

🌊 Cape Town weather can be a little unpredictable… but we’ve got you covered!☀️🌬️

With Cape Town’s ever-changing weather, we’re always keeping a close eye on the forecasts and any conditions that could affect your cruise. Safety comes first, with your comfort and enjoyment right behind it.

That’s why we offer ☀️free cancellation and rebooking up to 24 hours before your sailing time ☀️ — giving you plenty of time to check the forecast and make a call if the weather isn’t looking quite as inviting as you’d hoped.

And if WE decide that conditions at sea aren’t suitable due to heavy seas or strong winds, we’ll work with you to reschedule too.

Thankfully, this is a very rare occurrence! Our boats are exceptionally seaworthy, with plenty of sheltered spaces if the weather decides to surprise us. And let’s be honest… Cape Town is pretty spectacular in just about every kind of weather.💙

So, don’t let a weather app make the decision for you just yet! 😉

🌸 Waterfront Charters salutes the women of the world this weekend as we celebrate National Women’s Day on Sunday and holiday on Monday.

Whilst the 21st century has seen advances in the understanding that women contribute equally to all the aspects of life, it is still worth quoting the words of the United Nations regarding Women’s Day:

✨ ‘Women of the world want and deserve an equal future free from stigma, stereotypes and violence; a future that’s sustainable, peaceful, with equal rights and opportunities for all.’

May those words ring true in the coming years. 💙

🥂 Our special offer for the three day weekend still has a few places available: the invigorating Prosecco Morning Cruise at a full 50% off normal rate.

A luxurious early morning 09h30 departure catamaran cruise on Table Bay waters with incredible views, a sparkling glass of chilled Prosecco and the amazing Atlantic Ocean marine life to admire, giving you the perfect start to the day.

💫 Booking is exceptionally easy: just go to www.waterfrontcharters.co.za and Scheduled Cruises – a couple more taps and you’ll be set to enjoy a perfect Women’s Day weekend adventure. 🥂⛵🌸

🧜‍♀️🤍With National Women’s Day in focus this month, Waterfront Charters would like to highlight the fact that our family-owned company would not be what it is today without the women who have added so much to every aspect of our organisation.

✨️From co-founder Maureen Girdlestone’s invaluable initial input and continuing advice, to the staff that handle the vital administrative and marketing tasks; from the women crew members whose dedication and expertise are the match of any of our competent staff, to our incredible skipper Michaela whose determination to be the best is visible in every aspect of her duties. She embodies that feminine strength that we admire so much and her motto says it all: ‘No ocean is an ocean without a mermaid!’ We love that thought, but would only amend it by saying ‘a lot of mermaids.’

Join us this long weekend for a cruise to meet some of our motivated team members.
