Hire our fully equipped luxurious self-drive houseboats and let time float by whilst you spend your holiday gently cruising along. No skipper's license or experience required!

They are your floating home away from home. We have outfitted them to a high specification, so it is truly a comfortable experience.
The inside of the boats are fully equipped with:
- Fore-cabin with a double bed, storage space and bench seat that doubles as a child’s bed.
- Fully fitted galley (kitchen) with stove, oven, electric fridge, sink and all kitchen utensils, crockery and cutlery.
- Compact heads (bathroom) with a hot shower, chemical toilet and basin.

- Safety equipment, including life jackets, first aid kit and fire extinguisher.
The outside exists of:
- Open lounge deck with a bimini.
- Barbeque for the one that didn’t get away.
- Roof top sundeck with plenty of space for all passengers to sun bath and enjoy the panoramic views.
- We offer all captains a short navigational course.
- Pilots that help you feel at ease and park your boat.
- Bathrooms with shower cabins and vanity.
- Covered terrace overlooking the estuary where you can relax and have a drink.
- Renting of fishing rods, single-person kayaks, etc.
- Houseboat services that are carried out at a designated jetty and include the following: fill up with fresh water, re-fuelling (if required), cleaning and pumping of toilets, check motor cooling system and oil level, rubbish removal and re-supply LP Gas (if required).
Our new charter base is located in sophisticated Thesen Islands Harbour Town, which is a multi-award winning marina development located in the scenic Knysna Estuary. It is within walking distance of the Waterfront, yacht harbour and town centre of Knysna, one of South Africa’s most picturesque and popular coastal towns.
Your main activities exist of gently cruising along or finding a secluded spot on the lagoon, sun bathing on the deck or a beach, diving into the water, dozing in the afternoon sun with the sound of water lapping beneath you, bird watching and perhaps even fishing for your own dinner. But you might also want to explore everything else Knysna and its surroundings have to offer.
