#๐ŸŒ… Waterfront Charters busiest period daily is late afternoon, when the sun is heading towards the western horizon. Not only do we offer a wide range of Sunset Champagne Cruises, but prior to that daily treat we offer another extremely popular cruise โ€“ our Pre-sunset Champagne Cruise.

The name sums up the event perfectly โ€“ itโ€™s an hour aboard a luxurious catamaran cruising Table Bay and the coastline of Cape Town, the city and mountains bathed in late afternoon sunshine are at their best for sightseeing.

Itโ€™s a cruise for people who have other evening plans; for families with younger kids with a curfew, or โ€“ letโ€™s face it โ€“ anyone who loves the sublime views of the marvellous Cape.

Full details at https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise/cc-60/

Online booking not only secures your places aboard, but also gets you a handy 10% off the normal rate. We look forward to seeing your beaming smiles as you sip a chilled glass of sparkling wine (or soft drink for junior) and take in the wonder of ocean and peninsula at its glorious best.

๐ŸŒ™โœจ The heavens are aligned, putting us here on earth in a prime position to witness not one, but two eclipses in quick succession: both a solar and lunar eclipse. We missed the solar event down south, but for those up early, the lunar eclipse made for good viewing and great photo-ops today.

Talking about things celestial is a reminder that we have our own Eclipse here at , named in accordance for our penchant for otherworldly nomenclature for our vessels.

Our Eclipse is a beautiful luxury motor catamaran โ€“ 13 metres in hull length โ€“ and she defines that word โ€˜luxuriousโ€™. Spacious decks and a refreshment area make for a perfect party platform out on the Atlantic, and she is available for private charters for any duration from two hours toโ€ฆwell, how long can you party?

Check her (and her sister vessels) out at www.waterfrontcharters.co.za, and youโ€™ll be surprised at how affordable these incredible floating palaces are for your special occasions.

Keep an eye on our social media channels and www.waterfrontcharters.co.za this week as we begin to reveal whatโ€™s next. Itโ€™s something rather special, and weโ€™re very excited to finally share it with youโ€ฆ

And as always, there will be something for our guests
to get involved in and reap potential rewards during this process โ€“ donโ€™t miss

Sometimes itโ€™s difficult to avoid a little hyperbole when describing a specific Waterfront Charters experienceโ€ฆ but weโ€™ll do our best to stick to the facts. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Once youโ€™ve experienced it for yourself, you can add the appropriate adjectives!

The scenario: You need a venue for the perfect party, so you charter one of our luxurious catamarans. ๐Ÿ›ฅ๏ธ๐Ÿฅ‚

You and your guests spend three hours aboard, cruising leisurely along the Cape coastline towards Clifton. The onboard DJ reads the crowd perfectly and provides the ideal soundtrack to set the scene.

Once at Clifton Bay, the crew drops anchor just off the beach and the fun really begins. ๐Ÿ–๏ธ๐ŸŒŠ Swimming, dancing, relaxing, chilled cocktails and a selection of other beverages keep everyone refreshed, while your choice of snacks hits the spot. ๐Ÿน๐Ÿ•บ

And then thereโ€™s the view. The beach, the ocean and the mountains create a backdrop that is, quite simply, unparalleled. (Not hyperbole. Fact.) ๐Ÿ˜‰โ›ฐ๏ธ

The jealous gaze of the beach-bound crowd is just further confirmation that youโ€™re in the best possible position to enjoy life. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The cruise back to the V&A is every bit as appealing, and once docked, your partygoers will no doubt agree: this was the party to beat all parties.๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿฅ‚

โ˜€๏ธ Summer is approaching!

Check out https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise-category/private-charters/ check your diary, choose the vessel that appeals most and, with just a couple more clicks, youโ€™ll be chartered and set up for the party adventure of a lifetime.

Then call your friends.

๐ŸŒž โ›ต๏ธ Any form of transport, no matter how modern and loaded with special features, is only as good as the pilot, driver or skipper that is at the controls. At Waterfront Charters we have an incredible range of vessels, all purpose designed to offer pleasure, comfort, reliability and โ€“ above all โ€“ safety. But without highly trained skippers and crew members, these features would never be utilised fully or correctly.

That is why we are never complacent about training. Regardless of experience, from old salts to enthusiastic youngsters, our crews are regularly put through rigorous training procedures, covering everything: safety procedures, maritime law, customer care, navigation โ€“ you name it. Our sole aim is to offer all our guests the best possible cruises in perfect safety, and every crew member will do their best to ensure the best possible outcome under any circumstance.

So check out our wide range of scheduled cruises and private charter options: go toย www.waterfrontcharters.co.zaย to book online and leave the rest to us. Our safety record is above question, and we intend to keep it that way through dedicated teamwork and constant education.

โœจ๐ŸŒŠ Few vessels make an entrance quite like Eclipse, one of the luxurious additions to the fleet.

A 42ft (13m) motor-powered cat, she features spacious decks for partying or chilling and a forโ€™ard trampoline for reclined relaxation as you gently cruise the Atlantic.

Fitted with state-of-the-art controls and navigational equipment she is an incredibly stable vessel, ideal for sunset cruises, Clifton adventures and โ€“ of course โ€“ private parties on the Atlantic coastline for up to 40 guests.

With a refreshment area amidships catering is a breeze, and we can add a top DJ to the mix if you are looking for ideal accompanying sounds. ๐ŸŽถ

Eclipse is a beauty: there is no better description, and her expert skipper and crew members will ensure the perfect cruise, be it a scheduled event or private charter. โœจ

Check out https://waterfrontcharters.co.za/cruise/pc-eclipse/ for full details of Eclipse and our cruises โ€“ itโ€™s the ultimate in ocean experiences. ๐ŸŒŠ
