Anyone who’s ever driven from Stanford to Gansbaai (on the Cape Coastal route in South Africa that is!) would have noticed the sign to Grootbos on the left about halfway there! The modest sign belies the exquisite nature of this place, a gem on the whalecoast of South Africa!

Stunning unspoilt beaches
We did say 5-star… Absolutely!
The region, Hermanus, Stanford & Gansbaai are rich in offerings, ranging from mountain hikes with incredible views over Walker Bay, beach walks all the way from Sandbaai to Pearly Beach, whale watching in spring and summer, incredible fynbos, wildlife, with leopard sightings not unheard of, surfing, swimming, kayaking and even shopping (gasp!) at the markets in the area. No wonder it’s fast growing in popularity as both a weekend and holiday destination.
