Garden Route: Where the Forests Meet the Ocean

South Africa's Garden Route, spread out along the coast like a giant natural theme park, is a rich tapestry of very large trees, freshwater lakes and deep gorges.

Whether you're paragliding over sandy white beaches, spotting dolphins and whales from the air or exploring the deep indigenous forests; it's a place where nature rules, and it does so beautifully.

While outdoor activities take centre stage in this natural theatre, fine food and drink are always at hand - this is South Africa's oyster capital after all.

With some of the country's best beaches and a climate that is perfectly suited to playing outdoors, the Garden Route has long established itself as South Africa's most popular tourist destination after Cape Town.

Garden Route accommodation is plentiful in these parts with everything from seaside splendour to intimate guesthouses tucked away in the forest. There's something for all tastes and pockets, but you do want to pre-book in season as this region is extremely popular with locals and international visitors.

One of the best ways to experience the highlights of the Garden Route is by driving yourself around this easily navigable area.
