what to expect

Welcome to the gem of the world-famous, aptly named Garden Route, Plettenberg Bay. The Bitou River hosts an abundance of natural gems, only appreciated by exploring this river. Bitou Kayaks invites you to go on a 2, 3, or 4-hour paddle to experience the peace and tranquillity and magnificent birdlife of the Bitou River. 

 

Hire a kayak and wander along the river at your own pace or join us on a guided paddle at an additional cost. No previous kayaking experience is required. We will provide a mandatory pre-trip safety briefing as well as the necessary safety gear. All our kayaks have been certified by SAMSA. You will be provided with a waterproof pouch for your mobile and car keys.
