About Plettenberg Bay

Plettenberg Bay is located on South Africa’s scenic Garden Route in the Western Cape province, approximately 210km east of George and 500km from Cape Town. This upmarket coastal town is positioned between the Indian Ocean and the foothills of the Outeniqua Mountains, creating a dramatic landscape of golden beaches, indigenous forests and rocky headlands.

The area enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate with warm summers and temperate winters, making it a year-round destination. Plettenberg Bay’s location along the N2 highway provides easy access while maintaining an exclusive atmosphere. The town is particularly renowned for its 15km stretch of pristine beaches, the protected Robberg Nature Reserve, and its status as a premier whale watching destination between June and November.
