  • The Dunes Country House
    Voted best eco-lodge in the Eastern Cape, The Dunes is a four-star luxury lodge located in a 600 hectare private nature reserve in St Frances Bay. Involved in an exciting wetland rehabilitation project that has revived a population of threatened frogs and toads, they are also guardians of a 25km ancient coastal dune system with its intricate middens and shifting sands.
    Plenty to do - be it the new frog safari, a guided dune field walk, a treatment in the secret bush spa, a visit to the nearby beach with its warm ocean waves and miles of unspoilt coastline - there is almost no need to go out. Great value and fantastic service.

There are three spacious and extremely comfortable safari tents in total, with space for two children in each. The activities, all meals and local drinks are included in the rate, and the game viewing is tailored to your individual requrements.

  • Storms River Adventures
    Famous for its tree canopy tour in the Tsitsikamma Forest near Plettenberg Bay, Storms River Adventures was one of the first companies to receive FTTSA certification. Since then it has gone on to be a winner in the Southern African Imvelo awards, as well as a finalist in the 2008 World Responsible Tourism Awards. At its inception, the company pledged a ten point memorandum of understanding that its business would be there to help with poverty alleviation and environmental conservation in a remote rural area with little in the way of alternative industry. As well as being the closest you can get to flying like a bird, there are now short guided hikes and a more relaxing Woodcutters tour that drives into the forest by tractor for a magical lunch picnic. All three activities can be undertaken for a mere R775.00, not just great value but also a way to enjoy a rare tropical forest.
