Thanks a lot. This works "pg_dump -U postgres -t 1.activity -d geopostgrest -f activity_05-08-2015.sql" perfectly fine.

You are now connected to database "geopostgrest" as user "postgres".
geopostgrest=# \dt
No relations found.
geopostgrest=# \dt 1. List of relations Schema | Name | Type | Owner

"The -n and -N switches have no effect when -t is used, because tables selected by -t will be dumped regardless of those switches, and non-table objects will not be dumped."
Try something like:
pg_dump -U postgres -t 1.activity -d geopostgrest -f activity_05-08-2015.sql
