More runs, more practice and more time on Africa’s largest coastal dune sea.
The three-hour sandboarding trip gives you extra time on the Alexandria Dune Field to find your groove. You’ll leave our dock at Colchester, Addo, on a short boat trip along the Sundays River, past birdlife and the coastal edge of Addo Elephant National Park, to the dunes. With the longer session, there’s time to learn the basics, build confidence on steeper runs, try sandsledding and cool off in the river before heading back.
Duration: 3 hours, including the boat trip.
Price: R750 per adult. See Activitar for child rates.
Meeting point: 1 Jetty Street, Colchester, Eastern Cape.
Who it suits: keen boarders, active families, school groups and friends who want to make a proper session of it.
What to bring: sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, plenty of water, a towel and clothes that can get sandy and wet. Friends who’d rather watch can book a spectator place.

We had a fun tour with Adam - thank you so much! - Valery
Beautiful location. Left on time, returned on time. Friendly guides. The sandboarding was a bit more difficult than expected, but still a fun experience. - Tom
The sandboarding experience was unique and unforgettable! Everything was perfect from start to finish. I would especially like to commend the exceptionally friendly lady who led the tour. Her advice and explanations were very helpful and made the experience even more special. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique adventure! - Mitja
Thank you so much for your wonderful service. - Moeketsi
I already reviewed this nice experience. I was there as a spectator. It was my sister and nephew from Poland (well versed in snowboarding) who decided to see the difference in sand boarding. The cruise, with marvelous views of the dunes and birds, was truly breezy particularly after a scorching heat earlier on. Thank you for shifting the time of this event for later in the afternoon when the temperature was more acceptable. The sandboarding was fun. Adam, the guide, was very pleasant, patient and accommodating. Sandboarding was easy for my sister and nephew but sliding straight into the water is not something that you practice while on snow. The water in the river was clean and warm. i must say the slide directly into the river was not faint-hearted. It looked much more dangerous than it actually was. So, in a nutshell, this sand boarding was a good comparison experience. I can not say whether sand or snow-boarding is a winner. But when my quests come to South Africa again they would like to repeat the experience. - Marta
