KNYSNA-GARDEN ROUTE

by nora_south_africa - last update: Apr 24, 2008

There is so much to do

There is so much to do in and around Knysna, Fishing & sailing on Knysna Lagoon are very popular.There are a number of very good golf courses.
There are hiking trails, bird, dolphin & whale watching.Knysna is situated in the heart of the Garden Route .
The N2 goes right through Knysna, so if you travel along this route you cant miss it, shops on both sides of the road and many many restaurants and coffee shops, As you come into town you will see adverts along the road for accommodation, From the lagoon are lots of boat tours that you can do, even tours that give lunch , The shops at the lagoon (harbour) are more expensive than in town, so take note of that.
Busses make a stop here from cape Town on route along N2.
This is a lovely town to visit, great views.... Knysna heads are stunning( a must see) if you like nature.
There is some night life here although not as much as Plettenberg Bay or cape Town. But enough for most people.
Out of season the village is quite but December its really busy! really busy!
Bookings during holiday season must be done well in advance!
