If you're seeking a serene and less crowded beach with stunning views, Kleinmond is the ideal destination. Additionally, there are options for barbecuing and kayaking for a day trip, or if you prefer camping, Palmiet campsite is only a short distance away. You can also opt for a hike.

The scenery at the beach is absolutely beautiful and peaceful, but unfortunately the lagoon wasn't very refreshing. Perhaps if the high tide was stronger and the water flowed in and out more, it would have been more inviting, but that wasn't the case. Despite this, the views are still spectacular.

This beach is truly a sight to behold, boasting breathtaking natural beauty that is sure to leave you in awe. What sets it apart from other stunning destinations is its welcoming attitude towards furry friends - unlike many other beaches, dogs are allowed to frolic and play to their heart's content here. Whether you're looking for a peaceful escape or a fun-filled day out with your four-legged companion, this beach is the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the sun.

This beach is a true hidden treasure, a campsite that stands out from the rest. Being surrounded by nature while still having the convenience of a shower is a major plus. And let's not forget the stunning beach and lagoon that are easily accessible. On a clear night, I was lucky enough to witness the Milky Way in all its glory, something I had never seen before. This is undoubtedly a breathtaking location that should not be missed.
