South Africa Activities

South Africa is known as the 'world in one country' because of its landscapes and natural diversity, and aligned to this is the range of activities available to visitors to the country.

Historical tours, game viewing, wine-tasting, great food and many outdoor activities add up to to the one of the best travel experiences on earth.

From skydiving to shark cage diving, lion-spotting to just lying around, the South African environment affords both excess and relaxation.

Walking or scuba-diving among nature's fiercest predators is as easy to accomplish as working on the perfect tan, or sipping the smoothest cocktail. Holidays in South Africa are bound to offer variety and plenty to do.

"Our guides called out the names of various birds: "Nine o'clock - Shy Albatross!” or "Cory's Shearwater - dead ahead!” The excitement was contagious and I helpfully pointed out possible rarities which invariably turned out to be floating seaweed or the flash of a seal's fin. But the guides were distracted, peering at the horizon, murmuring to each other, bending over the boat's radio - what were they after? - Dominic Chadbon, 'Pelagic Birdwatching', July, 2008.
