Cruising along the Wild Coast’s Mtamvuna River

Posted by David Henning on 29 August 2022

While Wild Coast Sun may be Sun International’s only beachfront resort, it is also conveniently situated on the banks of the Mtamvuna River, and because of the South Coast’s endless summer temperatures, it buzzes with activity all year round.

Guests are spoilt for choice when they head down to the resort’s Riverside Aqua Sports Beach Bar on the riverbank, where canoeing, kayaking, sit-down and stand-up paddle boats, speed boats and fishing all take place.

The best way to end a day of exhilarating water sports fun is to jump on a boat cruise that gently navigates up the Mtamvuna River. Soak up nature around you with a cool breeze against your face and a cocktail or beverage in hand while you take in the glorious sunset.

The cruise is between 45-minutes and an hour and takes you up to the breathtakingly beautiful Umtamvuna Nature Reserve. You can choose between a public or private cruise.

The one-hour cruise takes you through the Umtamvuna Nature Reserve. Before you depart, purchase your beverage of choice from the bar to enjoy onboard.
