The Treasures of nature unique to Stilbaai in the South African Garden Route have attracted visitors to this Bay of Sleeping Beauty for centuries.

The unique limestone area with its abundance of natural springs, provided the ideal habitat for ancient man whose footprints still linger here.

Comprehensive sporting amenities ranging from a nine-hole golf course, to bowling greens, tennis and squash courts in conjunction with the mild climatic conditions and low winter rainfall provide keen sportsmen with ample opportunities. The well-organised and established business sector provides for all shopping and service needs.
