What to do. The area abounds with nature reserves, hiking trails, protected estuaries and lagoons, while the ocean tempts the more adventurous with superb surfing, kiteboarding and deep-sea fishing. For nature lovers, this stretch is famed for its bird watching, whale and dolphin viewing. And the scuba diving at Aliwal Shoal and Protea Banks is considered one of the best dive sites in the world. For golfers there are nine world-class 18-hole golf courses along the coast. And where the weather’s nearly always perfect, this is a good walk (even if it’s not the best round). Need to know! This is South Africa’s eastern coastline. The Indian Ocean is warm all year round – which has made it one of the most popular swimming and surf spots locally and internationally. The South Coast beaches are known for their abundant, tropical vegetation that nudges right up against the dunes. Miraculously, these heavenly sun-worshipping spots don’t get too crowded or busy. Don’t miss. The relaxation, of course. But you simply must try out the amazing eateries up and down this coastline. From cafés and coffee shops to bistros and brush-up restaurants, they do food well here. This part of the world is also known for its funky creativity and clever design, an arty sub-culture that is quite quirky and different from the country’s other design capitals. Check out the fashion, décor and local design genius – from the well-to-do shops to the beautiful beadwork and crafty roadside attractions. Sandy beach, suitable for children.
