Bungee Jumping in South Africa
Bungee jumping in South Africa has earned a global reputation for its claim to having the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. Positioned along the gorgeous Garden Route, the Bloukrans Bungee Jump will send you plummeting 216m, headfirst, towards the bottom. Because of the extreme height of this bungee jump, a full body harness is used, instead of the traditional ankle harness. The harness, combined with a technique called 'pendulum bungee technology', makes for a very comfortable jump - considering the fact that you're jumping off a 216m high bridge.
Bungee jumping in South Africa isn’t limited to the Bloukrans jump. 35 Kilometers outside of Mossel Bay along the N2 highway, is the old Gouritz bridge which was decommissioned for public transport a number of years ago.
