For some people, lying around by the hotel pool on your honeymoon is not enough. And why should it be? If you and your love are adventure-seekers, there’s enough to get your heart rate up in this country.
When planning your post-lockdown honeymoon, keep these places in mind and take a ride on the wild side of life.
1. Skydive
Want to know how it feels to fly? Skydiving is super popular and the view from the top is spectacular. There are several places across the country that offer this sport, but we love Skydive Tandem Johannesburg. Always make sure you only go through a registered company and qualified instructors.
2. River raft
River rafting, or white water rafting, is an extremely fun activity for two. Make sure you go in the summer months, because you will get wet, trust us! Choose one of South Africa’s many beautiful rivers. We like Gravity Adventures in the Northern Cape.
3. Bungee jump
This is inevitable for anyone who calls themselves an adrenaline junkie. Be brave, take that leap! South Africa has the world’s highest bridge bungee. Take a look at Face Adrenalin.
4. Scuba dive
Lovers of the underwater world will know we have some of the most incredible diving spots. From reef diving to shark diving to wreck diving, take your pick. Only go with a diving company and qualified instructors. We love Adventure Mania in Sodwana Bay.
5. Cliff jump
Not only is cliff jumping, or kloofing, an adrenaline pumping activity, but to get to the cliff you often have to hike along beautiful routes. Get down and dirty in nature, also a summertime activity but if you’re brave enough, all year round. Have a try at Canyon Adventures on the Garden Route.
