Cape Birding Route/Cape Town Pelagics/Birding Africa

Overview

Birding Africa, Cape Town Pelagics, Cape Birding Route are three sister companies who promote bird research and conservation by offering specialist bird watching tours and bird-finding information.

Cape Town Pelagics is a non-profit organisation that donates all profits from its trips to seabird conservation and research (to date more than R60000 to Save the Albatross Campaign of Birdlife International).

Cape Birding Route is based on the book Essential birding and offers bird-finding information for the Western cape online and free. It also offers an online facility to book accommodation and vehicles at cost price.

Birding Africa offers specialist birdwatching tours in Africa and Madagascar and offers free bird-watching outings around Cape Town

All three companies are maintained by three South African birders and ornithology researchers: Callan Cohen, Dr. Claire Spottiswoode, and Prof. Peter Ryan.

They endeavour to encourage ecotourism and international birding interest in Africa, and more specifically their home region around Cape Town.
