One of the best ways to experience the beauty of the Gansbaai coastline is to view it from offshore. So go on a boat cruise or a kayak trip in De Kelders that will take you onto the open sea, or join a guided kayaking tour that starts from nearby Hermanus. For something a bit more tranquil, the nearby town of Stanford has boat cruises on the River Klein, which makes for an amazing way to spend a relaxed morning or afternoon.
