Harties Boat Company - Hartbeespoort, North West

Few experiences capture the beauty of Hartbeespoort quite like a cruise with Harties Boat Company. Operating from the shores of Hartbeespoort Dam, this popular attraction offers visitors the opportunity to view the Magaliesberg mountains and surrounding landscapes from a unique perspective on the water. Whether you are visiting for a romantic escape, a family outing or a special celebration, the company has built a reputation for turning an ordinary day on the dam into a memorable occasion.

Established in 2016, Harties Boat Company has grown into one of the region’s leading cruise operators, welcoming thousands of guests each year. The focus is not simply on sightseeing but on creating complete experiences, with attentive hospitality, quality catering and a lively atmosphere that reflects the spirit of Hartbeespoort.

The fleet caters for a range of occasions and group sizes. The luxurious Alba offers a stylish, glass-enclosed cruising experience, while the lively Danny Buoy is a favourite for celebrations and larger gatherings.
