Do you want an unforgettable holiday spent on luxuriously pristine white sand, with crystal clear undisturbed waters to dip your toes in while the sun sets over an ocean horizon? South Africa is teeming with spectacular beaches, charming coastal towns and idyllic seaside resorts – all of which ensure a vacation that will leave lasting memories.
Whether you’re a surfer searching for the perfect wave, an adventurer, or a sun seeker, you can find all kinds of beaches that deliver a unique experience full of fun activities and beautiful landscapes. From the thrilling waves of Plettenberg Bay to the desolate sandy stretches of the Wild Coast, there’s something for everyone in South Africa.
Located along the coast of the beautiful Western Cape, Camps Bay Beach is the perfect beach for a romantic getaway or a fun family day out. Sunbathing on the white sand of the beach and swimming in its crystal-clear waters is a relaxed way to spend the day, while the promenade features a strip of upmarket restaurants, bars, and boutique shops that come alive at night.
The beach also offers nearby surfing spots and plenty of interesting nearby sights. Clifton 4th and Llandudno beaches nearby are also excellent choices for sunbathing and frolicking in the waves.
Situated along the urban city of Mossel Bay, Diaz Beach is a great place to escape the bustle of city life. The wide stretch of brilliant white sand creates a sense of serenity, while the crystal-clear waters provide a perfect opportunity to have a dip in the ocean. With a stunning backdrop of the Outeniqua Mountains and endless views, this beach is an ideal spot for perfecting your suntan or walking along the shore. For surfers, the beach offers some of the best waves in the country.
The beach also offers various nearby attractions, including the Seal Island Nature Reserve – a breeding habitat for the Cape fur seal – and some excellent restaurants serving fresh local seafood.
Bosduifklip Beach is tucked away inside the Cape Agulhas National Park, a few miles from De Hoop Nature Reserve. It’s a relatively secluded spot, surrounded by towering cliffs and pristine white sand. The nearby trails within De Hoop Nature Reserve will give an opportunity to explore jagged rocks and rolling hills, whilst you’re rewarded for your efforts with glorious uninterrupted views of the ocean.
The beach is usually very quiet, but during winter the weeks either side of Christmas and New Year’s Day become quite lively. Putting aside the crowds, the beach is a fantastic option for swimming, surfing and walking.
The Wild Coast holds some of South Africa’s most stunning coastlines – many remote and often difficult to access. Coffee Bay, tucked away along the Wild Coast, is one such hidden gem. To get there requires a bumpy, adventurous ride through mountains and rivers, or a scenic stroll or ride along the beach. The area offers some of the best beaches in the region, combined with plenty of opportunities to explore the nearby forests, and wander along quiet nature trails. Nearby is the Hole in the Wall – an arch of rocks that are encased by endless, rolling waves.
Surfers will also love the waves, whilst fishing enthusiasts can throw out a line in search of some sought-after seafood delicacies. Due to its remote nature, the beach is usually very quiet, but I can guarantee that the tranquility and beauty of the sandy stretch will never disappoint.
