Don't Throw In The Towel

Three thrilling water sports you can enjoy all autumn long!

We can feel the chill in the air – darker in the mornings, and cooler evenings. But the adventure never stops! Grab your Octohoodie and make your way to the beach no matter what!

Surfing the winter swell in Cape Town.

Yip, ‘tis the season of big swells, and what better way to feel swell than a good surf and the right surf gear. Seasoned or a beginner, the crips autumn air brings an edge to your experience, I know that. But your Octohoodie will keep you warm before and after your early morning paddle-outs and make the trip home in the car snug and dry, fast.

Paddling the downwind.

Then there is downwind paddling. Be careful with this activity, as it can be nothing short but wild! This is a couple of hours of total thrill. And as your frozen self tumbles out of your surfski we make sure we get you warm. PS Paddle with a buddy!

SUP the vlei.

This is the most family fun you can have on the water when the chill kicks in. Buy a stable, family friendly board so you can go two at a time, or even three! You get to celebrate your surrounds as well as the beauty of the water as you survey the scene. And so may benefits all in one – heart health, strength and balance and definite mental well-being. 

So, don’t let the chilly weather slow down aquatic adventures. Looking forward to seeing you on (or in) the water all season long!

Stay warm and Gear Up For Fun! 🏊‍♀️ 🌊 🐙
