A thin belt of marine reserve about halfway between Plettenberg Bay and Port Elizabeth, the Tsitsikamma National Park should be the highlight of every journey along the Garden Route.
The park stretches along 68 dramatic kilometres of South Africa's east coast, where the surging waves crash over rocky coastline and old hardwood forests knot the coastal cliffs. The highlight of the Tsitsikamma National Park is the Storms River Mouth, a large and abrupt estuary over which a precarious rope-bridge is slung.
Walking is the main activity in the park, which is the starting point of the famously spectacular Otter Trail. A walk in the area is well worth it - the scenery and the depth of the unspoiled nature in the area are breathtaking and unmissable.
