BRENTON ON SEA

One of the most beautiful beaches in South Africa in our opinion, and just around the corner! Take nice beach walks, enjoy the sunsets, take some beautiful photos, and discover local fauna and flora. If you're lucky, you might see dolphins and stingrays enjoying the clear ocean!

OUTENIQUA PASS N9

One of the most beautiful roads there are! There are several excellent view-sites and the third one from the summit is particularly impressive, which is marked as "The 4 passes". From this vantage point all four passes still be seen, one of which dates back almost 200 years.
