Ride the White Sand Dunes of Cape Town

Experience one of Cape Town’s most iconic adventure activities with quad biking on the Atlantis Dunes. Located just outside the city, this unique landscape offers rolling white sand dunes that stretch for kilometres, creating the perfect playground for an adrenaline-filled ride.

Your experience begins with a safety briefing and basic training session, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced riders. Once comfortable, you’ll head out with a guide to explore the dunes, riding up and down steep slopes and across open sand terrain.

The dunes are constantly shaped by the wind, meaning no two rides are ever the same. As you navigate the terrain, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding area, with opportunities to stop for photos along the way.

Quad bikes are automatic and easy to operate, allowing you to focus on the experience rather than technical riding skills. The activity typically runs for 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the package selected, and is conducted in small guided groups for safety and enjoyment.  

This is a high-energy, fast-paced experience and one of the most popular adventure activities in Cape Town.

  • Guided quad biking on white sand dunes
  • Beginner-friendly with full safety briefing
  • 30 min to 1 hour ride options
  • Photo stops on the dunes
  • Optional combo experiences available
