Discover Cape Town's stunning biodiversity by joining a private kelp forest snorkelling experience or a full day expedition of the Cape Peninsula with Kelptown.

Immerse yourself in the Great African Sea Forest, home to thousands of species that thrive in this unique underwater ecosystem. With vibrant reefs and diverse fish life, you’ll be truly amazed by the beauty beneath the surface.

Or, journey along the Cape Peninsula, stretching 52km from Cape Town city to the Cape Point lighthouse. Along with breathtaking scenery of coastal vistas and pristine white sandy beaches it is also the heart of the fynbos biome, boasting 1,500 plant species, most of which are found nowhere else in the world. The kelp forest and fynbos covered mountains make two extraordinary ecosystems which contribute to Cape Town’s status as one of the most biodiverse cities in the world.
