Vleesbaai, Western Cape, South Africa

Vleesbaai is a unique and picturesque seaside village nestled cosily between pristine beaches and the world-renowned fauna and flora that abounds all along the spectacular Garden Route.

Imagine stretching out on a lounge chair on your stoep with a glass of the best from the Garden Route`s vineyards while watching the Southern Right Whales or shoals of dolphins frolicking in the waves a stone’s throw away? Or relaxing next to a fire while the moon slowly rises over the outstretched ocean, painting the water and sky in front of you into a spectaculour kaleidoscope of brilliant light and colour?

This untouched piece of paradise is situated along popular off-the-beaten-track coastal havens like Dana Bay, Boggomsbaai, Vleesbaai, Fransmanshoek, Kanon and Gouritsmond. Its central location between unspoilt nature and lively city entertainment at the nearby Mossel Bay and George, offers visitors the best of both worlds. Those who are tired of the hustle and bustle of suburban life can kick off their shoes and enjoy the endless beaches where one can safely jog, hike, snorkel, fish, surf or swim in the warm Indian Ocean. For the more adventurous there are kite-surfing and wind-sailing as well as bungee jumping on the nearby Gourits bridge and deep-sea fishing in Mossel Bay. The acclaimed Oystercatcher hiking trail between Mossel Bay and Gouritsmond is a definite must for hiking fans.
