GUIDES








Surrounded by the Outenique and Tsitsikamma mountains and engulfed by indigenous forest, the town abounds with hotels, restaurants and shops to suit every taste. Originally named Bahia Formosa (Beautiful Bay) it was renamed after Dutch Governor Joachim van Plettenberg in 1779. With 20km of beaches stretching from Robberg Peninsula to the mouth of the Keurbooms River, it is one of the most fashionable holiday destinations along the Southern Cape coast. Plettenberg Bay is renowned for its unique marine reserves and is home to soft coral reefs, dolphins and seals. The beaches and rivers are a water enthusiast's paradise.
