2y By Sergio Miller

The December holidays are a time for family, fun and making memories – and there is no better way to make the most of this festive season than by getting involved in activities that will linger for a lifetime.

If you are finding yourself in Cape Town, then you are at the right place. The city is filled with an abundance of activities all waiting to be explored by you. From ocean experiences to having a bird’s eye view of the beautiful landscapes from an elevated position – make this school holiday one worth remembering.

This article will explore some activities you can try, and your little ones will enjoy.

Rollercade

If your kids enjoy moving on wheels, then Cape Town’s Rollercade is definitely the place to visit. It is the perfect place to have fun as it offers more than just a roller-skating experience, you can also test your gaming strengths at the arcades or dance to the tunes of a live DJ.

Paddle at Battery Park

Those looking to trade their rollerskates for a paddle board can certainly do so when visiting SUP at Battery Park in the V&A Waterfront. It is fun and something the entire family can get involved in.

They also offer packages if you or your child are looking to host your birthday party at the venue with well-trained instructors ready to guide you on the experience.

Cruise the waters at V&A Waterfront

A stone’s throw away from Battery Park is the V&A Waterfront. It is here that you can venture on a boat tour along the coast of Cape Town where you will encounter some marine animals like seals and dolphins. Additionally, you are also spoiled for choice with several packages to choose from; from daily cruise, and sunset crews and those looking to host a personal event can also book a private yacht.

Helicopter

While at the V&A, you can take it a level up – literally, by booking a helicopter experience with Waterfront Boat Tours. Here you will explore breathtaking views of Cape Town, Table Mountain as well as the iconic Robben Island Museum where the late Nelson Mandela was held captive.

Make this holiday one to remember!
