Swimming, tanning, book reading, fishing, kite flying, body boarding, surfing, touch rugby, beach cricket, beach soccer, dog walking, jogging, sand castle building, shell collecting, beachcombing and good old fashioned relaxing; the beaches along the Wild Coast Jikeleza Route are waiting for you. Bring a bucket and spade for the little ones, there's plenty of sand and rock pools to keep them happy.

Dolphin and Whale watching

Pods of dolphins can be seen surfing the waves year round, but their numbers really increase during the winter months, when pods stretching for hundreds of metres can be seen as they search for the shoals of the Sardine Run. It is also around this time of year that the Humpback and Southern Right Whales begin to arrive from Antarctica. Not a day goes by that they are not seen jumping out of the water or slapping the surface with their tails. The whales don't come too close to shore though, so bring your binoculars to get a better view.
