The annual Sardine Run off the Wild Coast of South Africa is like nothing on earth!

Whales, dolphins, sharks, seals, gannets…are just a few of the usual suspects that pitch up for the easy pickings. And the sardines just keep coming. Being herded and feasted upon mercilessly.

Rob and Debbie, the team who run Offshore Africa, https://offshoreportstjohns.com have been taking eager guests out to see the action right up close, for over a decade. They are the only local operators in Port St. Johns, the gateway to the sardine run and they operate from the nicest place. Right on the river. Boats moored out front ready to go!

On the most recent Sardine Run, in 2017, Rob and team got a few more camera angles for us to enjoy. And put together this cool and quick “Sardine Run day out” compilation.

The Sardine Run Experience with Rob and Debbie and the Offshore Africa Port St. Johns team…

  • flexible accommodation & time frame options
  • safe boats and highly experienced skippers and crew
  • local knowledge
  • perfectly maintained equipment
  • beautiful location
  • a highly personal & flexible offering
  • A combined experience in the industry in excess of 30 years

And to really top it all off, you are in Port St. Johns. One of the most picturesque and interesting little towns in all of Africa. It’s history is as colourful as the surroundings. Set at the mouth of the mighty Umzimvubu River, at the base of a huge gorge, this town is full of stories!

There are many things to do in between outings to sea. Hikes and tours. Amazing views from up at the airstrip and all over. Coastal drives. Nature reserves. River cruises.

The team at Offshore Africa can help you arrange any of these fun things to do in and around Port St. Johns. And anything else you might need on your trips out to sea and back with them.

Trips are tailor made to suit you, your time and your budget.
