Boat Tours Harbour, Durban

This short deep sea public cruise is available daily on the hour from Wilson's Wharf or Durban Marina; and is ideal for a fun filled hour for the whole family young and old. It is more of an educational tour that you would want to share with family or friends. We head out to sea via the harbour channel, where you will be delighted by the view of of Durban and Moses Mabhida Stadium.

Durban Harbour is the biggest and busiest harbour in the Southern Hemisphere. There is so much to see, that the trip would seem shorter, than it was. We will take you up close to enormous ships. We also show visitors the different docking points, Cargo Loading Areas and Durban’s famous North Pier, through which large cargo vessels exit the harbour. You will be amazed at the channel, which, with respect to shipping, is very narrow..

Apart form the obvious fun that you will enjoy, we will also ensure that you spend at least an informative hour on the boat.

Picnic baskets are permitted.


Our catamaran must be booked as a complete UNIT for a MAXIMUM of 47 passengers.

Our skippers have all the necessary documentation and qualifications in order to skipper our vessels.
There are also two trained crew on board to assist the skipper.

Going into the ocean. No doubt, the best way to view whales and dolphins up close is from a boat. However, by law, you are not allowed to approach 300m of a whale, unless you are on board a boat permitted by the Department of Marine and Coastal Management.

You will board the boat at Wilson's Wharf. The crew will ensure that all health and safety protocols are adhered to.
Daily from 10am to 4pm. Nip away to a rustic harbour marina amongst working slipways and see ships manoeuvring. Wilson’s Wharf offers a yacht’s spectacular view of the working Durban Harbour. Tamed Marina water ripples below the drinking decks of outdoor pubs where festivity is served warm and seafood is served fresh from the fishing vessels. See the fourth largest container port in the Southern hemisphere in action. There are twenty terminal operators.
For the sake of entertainment the crew will also play music sometimes for the students to enjoy an entertainment cruise!

Then you will be brought back to Wilsons Wharf.
