Heart of the Garden Route

Whether seeking family fun, thrilling encounters, or simply soaking in coastal bliss, Plettenberg Bay enchants visitors with its captivating blend of beauty and excitement.

Plettenberg Bay enjoys an exceptional climate, making it an ideal base for exploring the Garden Route. The town’s main street is filled with restaurants, cafes, and shops, earning it a reputation as a pleasure seeker’s paradise. The miles of unspoilt beaches attract visitors of all ages, with playful dolphins frequently visiting the shores and whales commonly sighted from June to October. Exhilarating close-up encounters with these magnificent creatures can be enjoyed on boat trips into the bay.

For the more adventurous, Plettenberg Bay offers adrenaline-pumping activities such as the world’s highest bungee jump, tree canopy tours, abseiling, and skydiving. Another must-visit attraction is the Monkeyland Primate Sanctuary, the world’s only multi-species, free-roaming primate sanctuary, situated between Plettenberg Bay and Knysna.

Plettenberg Bay is perfect for a family-friendly self-drive vacation along the scenic Route 62. A trip to Plettenberg Bay can easily be combined with a visit to the Whale Coast & the Overberg or an Eastern Cape safari, making it an ideal destination for clients self-driving from Cape Town.
