REGIONAL INFORMATION FOR SOUTH AFRICA
CAPE TOWN
Voted in 2009
by readers of the Daily Telegraph as the 'world's
most beautiful city'. No
other city in the world has the combination of
mountains, oceans, golden beaches, sporting
facilities and vineyards all within 20 mins drive of
the city centre.
With a Mediterranean
climate, over 300 days of full sunshine per annum
visitors wishing to escape the cold, wet European
winter are guaranteed superb weather.
Mid September to mid May are the
best months, but even during the Cape's "winter
months" the average day time temperature is 19C and
many of the clear winter days are very beautiful.
The city's landscape is dominated by Table
Mountain and the city's unique character is a blend
of African, Malay and European cultures.
Cape
Town is often referred to as 'The Mother City' and
it's people are friendly, hospitable and keen for
visitors to enjoy it's facilities and pleasures.
Sport is a major part of South African life so
no surprise that there are 8 golf courses within
20 minutes drive of the city centre, all forms of
water sport, climbing, walking, trekking, 8 mega
gyms, fishing, flying etc.
The city has a
superb selection of restaurants, cafes, clubs, a
symphony orchestra, opera - it is all there to be
enjoyed.
The Cape 'life-style' is truly
unique and with 4 daily direct flights from London
Heathrow, the 11 hour journey is worth every minute!
THE GARDEN ROUTE
There is a mountain
range that runs from Cape Town parallel to the east
coast for over 500km. The last 100kms from Mossel
Bay to Plettenburg Bay is called the Garden Route.
This area of land lies between the Outenique
mountain range and the warm Indian ocean has a micro
climate with warm moist winters and warm dry
summers.
The jewel of the Garden Route is Knysna, a prosperous coastal town built around a beautiful lagoon which opens to the Indian Ocean through Knysna Heads. Now more than a holiday town, Knysna has excellent sport and leisure facilities, restaurants, cafes and a relaxed life-style.
