Plettenberg Bay in Cape Town, South Africa


Cape St Francis is a beautiful village with stunning beaches and is home to the never-ending wave. Internationally known in the surfing world for its long rides. Tsitsikamma, the Khoi-San word for “place of many waters” is also known internationally for its forests that harbour the giant Outeniqua yellowwood, one of the few true monarchs of the world’s forests. Tsitsikamma National Park is also Africa’s oldest and largest marine reserve. Tourists converge on the area with its myriad walking and hiking trails in and around the forest and rugged coastline. This area also offers much in the way of adrenaline activities such as the highest Bunji Jump in the world, Dolphin and whale watching, black water tubing and many more. En route to Plettenberg Bay make sure to turn off at Natures Valley. A quaint village with exclusive beaches, river and beautiful scenery await.

Then it’s on to Plettenberg Bay, known as the jewel in the crown of the Garden Route, for a never-to-be-forgotten holiday experience. The rugged Outeniqua and Tsitsikamma mountains form the backdrop to this beautiful coastal resort. Cape flora, delicate ecosystems in wetlands and lagoons, forests of unsurpassed beauty, pristine sand dunes, sunbleached beaches as far as the eye can see and a Mediterranean climate make Plettenberg Bay the “bay for all seasons”. Plettenberg Bay is fast becoming the Polo capital of South Africa offering world class facilities.
