Just over two hours from Cape Town, on a route that winds through the hills of the Overberg, lies the picturesque fishing village of Struisbaai. The ideal location for either a relaxing weekend getaway far from the hustle and bustle of city life or a longer break over the school holidays. A place surrounded by pristine beaches and nature reserves, right next to Cape Agulhas, Africa's Southernmost Tip.

Choose between swimming, surfing, scuba diving, kayaking, kitesurfing, fishing, hiking, whale spotting and bird watching - it will be a day to remember. Then end your day with a walk on the 14kms of white sandy beaches, an aquamarine blue sea and you - days to dream about later.

Visit the harbour and buy fresh fish from the local fishermen, or if you are feeling adventurous, go on a fishing charter and catch your own.

From May to November the Southern Right Whale uses the bay as a nursery during calving season and visitors flock to Struisbaai to witness these magnificent mammals.

This beautiful region serves as an inspiration to artists and photographers - why not let it become yours?
