Natural Attractions

You will struggle to count countries that are as well endowed with natural attractions as much as South Africa is.

A complete desert turns into the richest natural floral city in the world almost overnight in Spring only, two oceans meet at the tip of a major city, a place had to be aptly named God’s Window because it is literally a window to one of the most breathtaking views you can ever imagine, awesome scenery is within an almost walking distance from any city, so many beaches some have yet to be explored and the big five roam in any national park that you can find across the country.

This is South Africa, the world’s beauty queen of natural attractions.

South Africa’s finest waterfalls
Mpumalanga – ‘place of the rising sun’ – could also be called ‘place of many waterfalls’. The circular Panorama Route that starts and ends in the town of Sabie and takes in all the natural attractions of the area, it also includes an unofficial Waterfall Route.

This area of eastern Mpumalanga has more waterfalls than any other area of South Africa – some small cascades and others dramatic curtains of water. While some of the waterfalls can only be seen by hikers, many of the most spectacular ones are actually very close to main roads.

Best Beaches
South Africa boasts some of the finest beaches in the world. From the pristine coastal stretch of KwaZulu Natal’s Cape Vidal to the Eastern Cape’s wildest Wild Coast….from the penguin colony of Boulders Beach in the Western Cape to the sun-drenched shores of Camps Bay.

National Parks - Protecting a Rich Heritage
South Africa is the third most biologically diverse country in the world. From arid deserts to lush coastal forests, from majestic mountains to the rough and ready bushveld – there is an abundance of unique flora and fauna in this country.
