Sandboarding, or Dune Boarding as it is also called, is a popular sport in South Africa thanks to the availability of fantastic sand dunes that can be found in many coastal areas.
The sand dunes backing Port Alfred’s beaches (particularly East Beach) and further along the Sunshine Coast are exceptional, but many not so steep that they can’t be enjoyed by the whole family. Port Alfred is one of the best places to learn this sport – which can range from family fun level to extreme on some of the steeper and higher dunes found in SA (up to 140m!)
Outdoor Focus in Port Alfred offer 2, 4 and 6 hour ‘expeditions’ to the dunes at East Beach. Take sunblock, and costume so you can dive into the ocean afterwards to get the sand out of your hair and teeth! This is one of the few adrenalin activities suitable for the whole family.
The best fun in the sun there is!
