Tour Highlights
This itinerary combines time in Langebaan with a shorter extension through the Western Cape, offering a well-balanced mix of world-class wind conditions and scenic touring. After your stay on the lagoon, where you can enjoy some of the best flat-water windsurfing and kitesurfing conditions on the planet, the trip continues with a relaxed journey through highlights of the Garden Route region, including coastal towns, forests and wildlife experiences. It is a particularly good option for those who want to experience a taste of what the Garden Route has to offer, without committing to a full, longer itinerary, making it an ideal add-on to a Langebaan-focused trip.
Days 1 - 6
4* Windtown Lagoon Hotel
Breakfast
This tour starts at Langebaan, the best Windsurf, Wingfoil and Kitesurf lagoon in the whole of South Africa. The drive from Cape Town airport is around 1.45 hours, depending on traffic. You can self-drive, or we can arrange a private transfer.
Langebaan
Langebaan is an idyllic little seaside town on the South African West Coast, and one of the best flat water Windsurf Lagoons on the Planet, just 90 minutes drive from Cape Twon. Founded in 1922, this historical town was once a whaling station, but it has now been transformed into a holiday destination on the West Coast. It is a mecca for nature lovers and Windsurfers. The lagoon is part of a protected area, the West Coast National Park - a world-renowned birding spot with migratory birds from as far as Russia stopping here annually.
The jewel of the West Coast towns, Langebaan will leave you with memories of a startling blue sea, acres of spring flowers and the enticing smell of fish ‘braais’ (barbeques). Sunsets on the west-facing coast are legendary and you’ll experience plenty of enchanting moments. We are sure you will return again and again to this tranquil, magnificently beautiful place.
During the South African summer months, from November to April Langebaan is on the most wind sure location on the Planet. The climate at this time of year is perfect, with temperatures in the high 20s/early 30s. The lagoon offers a huge flat water area, with many shallow sections, making this an ideal beginner or improver destination. Most of the Lagoon is surrounded by a nature reserve, which provides stunning views from the water back across the surrounding area.
Other compelling reasons to consider a holiday to Langebaan is the amazing and very cheap eating out, the world-class service (and always with a genuine smile), the huge range of off-water activities, and incredible value for money we enjoy with the relatively strong Pound.
It is best to have a car in Langebaan, so we would normally include this as part of your holiday quote. There are also lots of add-on options for a holiday to Langebaan, including extra nights in Cape Town, wildlife safaris, or even combining your stay in South Africa with a visit to Mauritius! Please call and speak to an expert advisor so we can put together the right trip for your budget, duration, and specific requirements.

It has a vibrant atmosphere with art galleries, fine dining, and world-class wineries. The town is surrounded by rolling vineyards and dramatic mountains, creating a picturesque setting that attracts both wine lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.
Franschhoek, meaning "French Corner," has a distinct European charm rooted in its Huguenot heritage. This small town is considered South Africa’s culinary capital, with award-winning restaurants and a strong focus on gourmet food paired with exceptional wines. The surrounding valley is breathtaking, with lush vineyards set against a backdrop of towering mountains. The Franschhoek Wine Tram is a popular attraction, offering a scenic and leisurely way to explore the region’s top wine estates.
