Your First Archery Experience in South Africa – What to Know Before You Go

  • Trying something new while on holiday can be a bit intimidating, especially if you are not sure what to expect. If you have never held a bow and arrow before, don’t worry. At Archery Adventures, we’ve designed our sessions specifically for first-timers, families, and tourists.
    1. You Don’t Need Any Experience

    No prior training or experience is necessary. Our trained instructors provide:

    • Step-by-step guidance
    • Individual attention
    • Fun games and challenges after a quick warm-up

    Most people are surprised how quickly they pick it up.

    1. What to Wear to an Archery Session

    Keep it simple. Here is what we recommend:

    • Comfortable clothes you can move in
    • Closed-toe shoes (sneakers are perfect)
    • A hat and sunscreen for sunny days

    All equipment, including safety gear, is provided on-site.

    1. Choosing Between Cape Town and Plettenberg Bay

    We offer archery experiences in two stunning locations:

    Cape Town:

    • Close to popular suburbs and attractions
    • Great as a quick adventure between city stops
    • Beautiful mountain and forest views

    Plettenberg Bay:

    • Nature-rich setting off the Garden Route
    • Calm and relaxing atmosphere
    • Ideal for combining with coastal or forest activities
