Where to Travel in
South Africa:
While you could travel around the
whole of South Africa in a matter of weeks, a more satisfying
approach is to focus your attention on one section of the country.
Every one of the nine provinces (plus Lesotho and Swaziland)
holds at least a couple of compelling reasons to visit, although,
depending on the time of year and your interests, you'd be wise
to concentrate on either the west or the east by using Stayinsa.co.za
for your accommodation needs..
The South African west coast, best
visited in the warmer months (Nov-April), has the outstanding
attraction of Cape Town , worth experiencing for its matchless
setting beneath Table Mountain, at the foot of the continent.
Half a day's drive from here can take you to any other destination
in the Western Cape , a province which owes its distinctive
character to the fact that it has the longest-established colonial
heritage in the country. You'll find gabled Cape Dutch architecture,
historic towns towns such as Stellenbosch, Franschhoek,
Paarl, Swellendam,
Wellington and Tulbagh.
Discover vineyard-covered mountains in the Winelands, forested
coast along the Garden Route and a dry interior punctuated by
Afrikaaner dorps like Graaf-Reinet
and Cradock in the Little Karoo.
If the west sounds a bit too pretty
and you're after a more "African" experience, head
for the eastern side of South Africa, it is best visited in
the cooler months (May-Oct). Johannesburg is more likely to
be your point of entry to this area: its frenetic street life,
soaring office blocks and lively mix of people make it quite
unlike anywhere else in South Africa. Half a day away by car
lie the Northern Province and Mpumalanga, which share the mighty
Kruger National Park . Of South Africa's roughly two dozen major
parks, the Kruger Park attracts the largest number of first-time
visitors, and is unrivalled on the continent for its cross-section
of mammal species. Addo Elephant park being a must to visit
whilst experiencing hospitality at the old frontier towns of
Addo and Sunland.
A visit to the Kruger
National Park combines perfectly with the KwaZulu-Natal
which lies to the south.
An excellent short cut is to drive through tiny, landlocked
Swaziland , which has attractions all of its own: a unique Swazi
culture and a number of well-managed game parks. KwaZulu-Natal
offers superb game and bird life; Hluhluwe-Umfolozi
Park is the best place in the world to see endangered rhinos
and there are several other outstanding small game reserves
nearby, such as Ithala, Mkhuze and Ndumo. For hiking and nature,
nothing rivals the soaring Drakensberg
range. After Cape Town, Durban remains the only city in South
Africa worth visiting in its own right: a busy cultural melting
pot with a bustling Indian district and lively beachfront. The
long stretch of beaches north and south of Durban is the most
developed in the country, but north towards the Mozambique border
lies the wildest stretch of coast in South Africa.
Long sandy beaches , developed
only in pockets, are characteristic of much of the 2500km of
shoreline that curves from the cool Atlantic along the Northern
Cape round to the subtropical Indian Ocean that foams onto KwaZulu-Natal's
shores. Jeffrey's Bay on
the Eastern Cape coast is reputed to be one of the world's top
surfing spots. Much of the Eastern Cape coast is equally appealing,
whether you just want to stroll, sunbathe or take in backdrops
of mountains and hulking sand dunes. Port Elizabeth and East
London are the largest of the coastal towns to visit along
the Eastern Cape coast line. Scuba diving , especially in KwaZulu-Natal,
opens up a world of coral reefs rich with colourful fish, and
southeast of the Western Cape winelands, along the Whale Coast
, is one of South Africa's unsung attractions - some of the
best shore-based whale-watching in the world.
With time in hand, you might want
to drive through the sparse but exhilarating interior of South
Africa, with its open horizons, switchback mountain passes,
rocks, scrubby vegetation and isolated dorps . The Northern
Cape and Northwest Province can reveal surprises. Visit the
western section of the Northern Cape in August or September,
and you'll be treated to a riot of colourful wild flowers in
and around Springbok. From the
staunchly Afrikaaner heartland of Free State, the cherry festival
in Ficksburg during the November
is a must. You will be well poised to visit the undeveloped
kingdom of Lesotho, set in the mountains between the Free State
and KwaZulu-Natal. Lesotho has few vestiges of royalty left
today, but it does offer plenty of spectacular highland scenery,
best explored on a sturdy, sure-footed Lesotho pony.
South
Africa is currently one of the most popular travel destinations
in the world.
