Grootbos is the nature lovers paradise, with the beach just steps away your family accompanied by an expert guide if you wish, can enjoy exploring the rock pools and stone age coastal caves hearing stories of ancestors that lived and walked along the coastline centuries before.
The coast line of South Africa is fascinating and from Grootbos there are dedicated teams of conservationists available to accompany guests on a range of activities which would be included in your stay, the highlight being close up encounters with southern right whales.
In addition to the whales that are viewable both from the cliffs and by boat there are also the Cape-fur seal colonies and rare African penguins to visit.
On land you’ll be introduced to the wonders of the fynbos, unravelling the fascinating relationships between insects, flowering plants, birds and mammals in the glorious South African climate. You’ll also be able to take leisurely walks in the shade of the milkwoods forests with trees more than a thousand years old to gaze up in wonder at.
You and your family might like to explore this enchanting nature oasis of beauty by foot, vehicle or horseback before heading back to the lodge to relax in the beautiful surroundings.
Accommodation at Grootbos comprises charming cottages which are set amongst the forested gardens with panoramic views and supreme comfort. Without doubt this is the finest place to stay if you are interested in learning about nature and seeing the migratory whales.
