Sunset champagne cruise from the V&A Waterfront

  • By Katja Mamacos

Table of Contents

One of the best views we’ve ever had of Table Mountain is from this sunset cruise. The mountain glows in Golden Hour, and looks all the more striking rising out of the choppy ocean waters.

This experience is also a great bit of fun, the perfect romantic date or anniversary evening – especially when topped off with dinner at the Waterfront! We’ve put together all the information you need, along with our own experience of the champagne sunset cruise.

What you need to know

catamaran sunset cruise waterfront

Cost: ~ R570 – although there are sometimes off-peak specials, so keep an eye out!

Duration: 1.5 hours

Tickets: You can buy tickets here or in person at the Waterfront – both options cost the same.

Starting time: This depends on the season, as we are, after all, chasing the sunset!

Alternative options: If you prefer to go earlier you can join this day cruise – it’s also cheaper because champagne isn’t included; you also have the option of this dinner and cruise combo if you want to have a full date evening.

What to wear: Dress warmly and wear closed shoes! Even in summer, it can get really chilly when the sun goes down; particularly on a windy day.

  • It’s a beautiful way to watch the Cape Town sunset
  • The catamaran is sturdier than a normal sailboat, which means less sickness-inducing
  • You can sit out on the front of the boat, or in an enclosed window-filled area
  • Two glasses of bubbly are included
  • They have a cash bar
  • They have safety gear and blankets, so children can join
  • There is a little bathroom on-board
  • It’s well-priced for something that feels so luxurious and exciting
  • If you go over the weekend, the boat can get quite full
  • They play music (not too loudly) which can feel a bit frustrating if you want to hear the wind and the waves
  • If you want to bring the whole family it can get a bit pricey

Our sunset champagne cruise Cape Town

catamaran sunset cruise waterfront

We really loved this cruise. Starting off with a plastic glass of bubbly as we stepped on the boat, we found a spot to sit on the front of the catamaran, securing a perfect view. The catamaran pushed slowly out of the harbour, and then we were leaving the city center behind and sailing out on the ocean.

We rounded a bright red buoy covered with young seals sunning themselves. From this vantage point we also spotted a whale curving slowly out of the water! Unfurling the sails, the boat picked up speed and crashed through the waves, everyone laughing and enjoying getting a bit splashed. The guides topped up everyone’s glasses and gave a little safety briefing in case anything went wrong.

It all had a really laid-back, easy vibe, and everyone was chatting and taking pictures, getting that shot for the gram.

Watching the sunset from the boat

catamaran sunset cruise waterfront

The sky slowly turned pink and the city glowed in the golden hour. It was incredible to watch the sunset from here – I come from a small Klein Karoo town surrounded by mountains, so we always watched the sun go down long before it really went past the edge of the world. But here, with nothing but ocean, you can watch its egg-like body slip down, ending with just a tiny line of light before that winks out too.

Sailing back to shore

catamaran sunset cruise waterfront

After this the light quickly rushes out of the sky and things get chilly. The guides brought out blankets to keep everyone snug, and some of us bought one more drink from the cash bar.

As we edged back into the harbour, the moon glowed bright and the many Waterfront lights reflected beautifully in the water. It felt super peaceful after the excitement of the choppy waves and wild-rushing wind.

The disembarking was all very quick and efficient – the skipper brought us in, people on the shore tied us down, and we walked right off the boat and a few steps over to the restaurant we’d picked to continue the celebrations! Easy and terrific.

So, now you have all the information you need to decide whether the sunset cruise is for you! We had such a lovely time celebrating our first six months married on board, and would definitely recommend it.

Customer Reviews

The cruise was incredible. One of the best I've on. - Lloyd

We enjoyed the sun set boat cruise even though the weather disturb us . - Nozipho

Easy and fun time on the Mirage catamaran. Friendly service and the ride was as smooth as it could be. It was a windy evening but the sail was lovely. The DJ was great as well. - Olga

We had an amazing experience on your catamaran. From the time we boarded we felt so comfortable by the warm welcome and the non alcoholic drinks that we were accommodated with. It was a real smooth sail with a spectacular sunset. - Shahyaar

Absolutely stunning experience with the Mirage Catamaran and crew. This crew seriously embodies not just a service but an experience. I had let Dani know that I was planning to propose to my now fiance during the cruise and Clara (spelling?) and the rest of the crew pulled out all the stops to make sure the moment was super special for us - I just cannot thank the entire Mirage team enough for being so amazing for us in such an important moment in our lives. We were made to feel so special and it's something we'll never forget. Over and above what they did for me personally, this was one of the highlights of our trip to Cape Town and if I never had to get off the Mirage I would probably still be there. It is a stunning cruise with amazing views, super smooth and comfortable the entire trip and the little extra steps taken like the great champagne, blankets for when it gets cold and comfortable seating make it that much more enjoyable. I have to just point out that the music playlist was so on point as well - whoever is in charge of the music gets extra points :) Mirage Catamaran sunset cruise deserves a 10 star rating - I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a beautiful experience of Cape Towns majestic views and just an all round epic experience with great vibes. We'll definitely be back! - Jason

Just remember to have a look at what the tour includes to ensure you get the exact offer you’re looking for.

Compare prices across the ticket providers below:

Cape Town: Pre-Sunset Champagne Cruise

Sunset Champagne Cruise Cape Town Times

Tour times vary depending on the tour provider you use, but they generally start at a similar time. Just keep in mind that the tour times also vary depending on the time of year. As such, here’s a basic breakdown of the usual times for the Cape Town sunset cruises:

Monday to Sunday: Start between 5 pm and 7 pm

Monday to Sunday: Ends between 6 pm and 11 pm

Best Time to Go on Sunset Cruises in Cape Town

When embarking on a sun-kissed afternoon just off the V&A Waterfront, you want to make sure you have the ideal weather conditions. Simply put, we’ve found summer to be the best time for a sunset boat cruise in Cape Town.

Summer brings balmy temperatures with little to no chance of rain, so you know your cruise won’t be ruined by the weather. Dusk also hits the Mother City much later in the day, so you’ll have more than enough time to fill your day with other activities, like sandboarding at the Atlantis Dunes .

Top Tip: If you’re not visiting in summer, you can always keep an eye on the average sunset times right here .

Best Sunset Cruise Cape Town Offers for You

Now that we’ve got all the technical stuff out the way, it’s time to dig into the top South African sunset cruises in Cape Town. We’ve gone into great detail about each option, identifying the pros and cons of each cruise.

So, without further ado, let’s get stuck in!

Classic Champagne Cruise Cape Town

Do you want to enjoy the best pre-sunset cruise Cape Town has to offer? If so, this stunning boat ride will tick all the boxes.

Departing from the V&A Waterfront, the boat will make its way towards the Milnerton Lighthouse, sailing across Table Bay before slowly sailing back to the waterfront. You’ll get to experience the golden hour, as the tour departs slightly earlier than most sunset cruises.

From Table Mountain to Lions Head, you’ll be able to enjoy sunlit views of Southern Africa’s most iconic mountain range. And to make things even better, you can enjoy the trip with a glass of South African sparkling wine. Could you ask for much more?

  • Complimentary champagne
  • 1-hour boat cruise
  • Drop-off at the V&A Harbour
  • Hotel pick-up and drop-off
  • Extra champagne

Once you arrive back at the V&A Harbour, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a meal at one of the Waterfront’s top restaurants. While this isn’t included in the tour’s price, it only makes sense to have a romantic dinner here after the cruise.

Avoid wasting time looking for the ideal place to eat, and visit the V&A Waterfront’s website to learn about each restaurant.

Champagne and Sunset Dinner Cruise Cape Town

As the main tour provider, Waterfront Charter’s sunset cruise with champagne and dinner is another fantastic option. Starting and ending at the V&A Waterfront, you can spend your hazy afternoon admiring the picturesque sights of Cape Town.

This tour uses the sailboats Serenity One and Esperance, so where the tour takes you depends on the weather. If the seas are running too high, the destination will be Cape Town Harbour rather than Table Bay.

No matter the destination, the views of Table Mountain at sunset are simply unbeatable. Who said you have to travel up Table Mountain by cable car for an unforgettable experience?

  • 90-minute sunset boat cruise
  • 3-course meal on luxury cruises
  • Gratuity at the restaurant
  • Drinks at the restaurant

During the tour, you’ll be treated to two fantastic glasses of local sparkling wine. And if that’s not enough, we found the three-course meal at the traditional North Indian restaurant, The Raj, to be the cherry on top.

Sunset Cruise: V&A Waterfront to Table Bay By Catamaran

To top off a great day of adventure and sightseeing, relaxing on a catamaran as it floats along the beautiful Atlantic Ocean is the ultimate way to relax. Throw in the fact that you can watch a jaw-dropping sunset, and you have the makings of a very memorable night.

Your catamaran cruise in Cape Town will start at the V&A Waterfront, where you will then sail down the Atlantic Seaboard, along with the southern coast peninsula. With the sea on one side and Table Mountain on the other, be prepared to be mesmerized.

  • 2 glasses of complimentary champagne
  • 90-minute sunset sail
  • Additional drinks and food

You can also enjoy amazing views of Cape Town Stadium, and depending on the night, it could be lit up. You can also view the city lights as the sun sets. Your cruise will end where it started, back at the amazing V&A Waterfront.

FAQs About Sunset Cruises Cape Town

We’ve covered a fair bit, but you may still have one or two questions at the back of your mind. As such, here are all the short answers to the most popular questions about a boat cruise in Cape Town.

What Famous Mountain Do You See on the Sunset Champagne Cruise Cape Town?

You’ll have captivating views of the stunning Table Mountain. As a part of the Cape Fold Belt, it’s one of the most iconic and easy to recognize ranges in the world. This is largely due to its distinct shape, much like a table with a chair on either end.

What Can You Wear on a Waterfront Sunset Cruise

These cruises generally have a very laid-back feel and dress code. So you can wear casual, comfortable attire. Light clothes like T-shirts, sundresses, skirts, and khaki shorts or chinos are usually ideal.

Can You See Whales in Cape Town?

If you join a sunset cruise between June and December, you’ll likely spot humpback and Southern Right whales. You’ll usually find them feeding with their calves near Mossel Bay, but it’s not unheard of to see them near Table Bay every now and then.

  • Experience the Cape's beauty from the sea
  • Unrivalled natural beauty
  • Feel like a Russian Oil Baron in the Mediterranean
  • Chance to see Bottlenose Dolphins and Cape Fur Seals
  • Some options are pricey
  • Experience affected by poor weather
  • Not suitable for persons who are especially susceptible to motion sickness

THE LUXURY SUNSET CATAMARAN CRUISE WITH PROSECCO

Watching the sun set from the deck of a luxury catamaran off the beautiful Cape coastline is an experience not to be missed – in fact it’s an experience that you’ll want to repeat many times over. Waterfront Charters catamarans Enigma, Serenity One and Sea Princess are the perfect vessels to host guests for this daily event, and with two glasses of complimentary  Martini Prosecco  to toast the setting sun as well as a fully stocked bar for other refreshments, it’s the perfect deluxe mobile venue for an evening adventure

Places are limited, so booking ahead online is recommended: it’s a superb way to salute the day’s ending and the start of your nighttime fun.

VARIATION TO CRUISE

(due to weather and unforeseen circumstances ).

For all the vessels, when the seas are running too high or the wind is unpleasantly strong, instead of heading into Table Bay the destination is the Cape Town Harbour for a Harbour Lights Cruise; a perfect alternative offering magical views of Table Mountain and the lights of Cape Town and the harbour in the evening.
