Gather your friends or family and get ready to hold on. Our Big Tube adventure starts from the floating jetty at the yacht club in Mossel Bay Harbour, with the ride usually taking place on the water in front of Santos Beach. The route covers approximately 3–4 km. There is no fixed ride time: conditions and stops to help riders back on after a fall affect how long the outing takes. Riders must be physically capable of gripping the handles and holding on throughout the ride. The usual minimum age is 12. For a private family group of around 10–12 people, younger riders may be considered by prior arrangement. Contact us before booking to discuss their ages and suitability; a private booking does not automatically approve younger riders. The operating area and ride remain subject to suitable weather and sea conditions All trips depart from the floating jetty at the yacht club in Mossel Bay Harbour. Please arrive at your confirmed check-in point 30 minutes before departure and complete and sign the required indemnity before boarding. Allow extra time for traffic and parking. Trips depend on suitable weather and sea conditions. Routes, stops and timings may change with conditions. Wildlife sightings are not guaranteed. Contact us before booking to discuss younger guests or a private family trip; participation is assessed against conditions, suitability and equipment requirements. Seasonal - the whole family can ride together.
