Catch the Heineken Cape to Bahia regatta in January

Event: Heineken Cape to Bahia
When: Jan 2010 (various dates)

The Cape to Bahia regatta is set to take centre stage in South Africa in early 2010, bringing to the region an annual contest that features hundreds of sailors.

Guests of luxury Cape Town hotel the Twelve Apostles Hotel and Spa, which is less than 20 minutes by taxi from the centre of the action - the Royal Cape Yacht Club, will be well-placed to enjoy the January event.

Taking place across a number of days, the event features around 40 yachts and up to 120 sailors, according to events website whatsonwhen.com. Participants and guests are thereafter treated to a prize-giving ceremony and a party.

Thanks to the Kids Package, families staying at the Twelve Apostles can enjoy free in-room movies from the hotel's collection, tickets to the Aquarium at the Waterfront and a basket of toys.

Full English breakfast for the family and a three hour babysitting service is also included in the deal, which offers a great opportunity for exploration of Cape Town's most beautiful beaches.
