Diaz Beach, Mossel Bay
Not only is Diaz Beach stunningly gorgeous, but the gentle waves make it perfect for families. The best part, though? There are no rocks on these sands so you don’t have to worry about cutting your feet.

Sodwana Bay
At Sodwana Bay sub-tropical forests run flush against coppery-colored sand dunes making it one of the most breathtaking sites in all of South Africa. It’s far enough away from the city lights to seem relaxing while also packed enough to make it fun.

Camps Bay
Camps Bay is hands down the most popular beach in the country and the perfect tourist destination. The views are magnificent, the restaurants all delicious and there is no end to options for fun including surfing, kayaking and volleyball. It’s the type of place you see on most postcards of Cape Town.
