WEST COAST - 2 NIGHTS
Wildflowers and the Atlantic
Two nights in a private ocean-facing house in Yzerfontein.
ABOUT THE SWARTLAND AND WEST COAST
Where farmland meets the Atlantic
North of Cape Town, the Swartland unfolds in wheat fields, vineyards and olive groves around villages such as Riebeek-Kasteel. To the west, farmland gives way to long beaches, dunes and fishing villages, where the Atlantic sets the pace.
Yzerfontein faces the open ocean, while Langebaan Lagoon offers sheltered waters within the West Coast National Park. In the southern spring, wildflowers can transform the landscape, depending on rainfall and seasonal conditions. The region’s character is generous and unpretentious, shaped by seafood, cooking over open fires and wide, open spaces.
