Explore the Area
From thrilling wildlife encounters to serene coastal hikes, the Garden Route offers unforgettable experiences just minutes from your doorstep.
The Garden Route is one of the world's most spectacular golf destinations, with a remarkable concentration of championship courses set against breathtaking coastal and mountain scenery. Pinnacle Point, just minutes from Dana Bay, delivers an unforgettable experience with seven holes threading along dramatic ocean cliffs high above the Indian Ocean. Fancourt in George — home to The Links course that hosted the 2003 Presidents Cup — is widely regarded as South Africa's premier golf estate, while Oubaai showcases Ernie Els' first South African championship design with sweeping views of the Outeniqua Mountains. Combined with the historic Mossel Bay Golf Club and gems like Simola in Knysna, the Garden Route packs world-class golf into one of the most scenic stretches on Earth.
