Cape Travel Guide
The Eastern Cape is South
Africa's second largest and most diverse province. It's a great sun, sand
and sea destination with a coastline that runs from temperate rocky shores
in the south to sub-tropical beaches in the north. There is a beach for
every reason - from highly developed urban playgrounds to wild and untamed
stretches of wave-washed sand. It has some of the best surf in the country
- make that some of the best surf in the world... |

the vibrant Karoo by Tamara Toti
At a first glance, the arid
Karoo which transfrontiers the north-eastern part of the Western Cape and
southern parts of Northern Cape, looks deserted and barren, but if you
