Major Tourist attractions:

• Stretching along the southern Cape coast from Heidelberg in the west to the Tsitsikamma Forest and Storms River in the east, the region's entrance to the interior is barred by towering mountains breached by passes and gorges stirring archetypal images of Amazonian jungles. More, the silence evoked by its ever-changing landscape carries on its still, fragrant, sea-scented air a sense of the spiritual. With so much of the Garden Route's beauty unspoilt, visitors feel they have been set free to play in God's backyard.
• A well-developed tourist infrastructure has strung the region's towns along its coast like a string of pearls. In all of them, artists, writers, naturalists and nature lovers coexist with those devoting their time and energies to catering to the whims and special fancies of the area's year-round visitors.
• Replete with legends of hillbillies, the seldom-seen Knysna elephants, soft mornings drifting in on the music of a woodcutter's axe, the early sun kissing the face of a perfect wave peeling off cosy Victoria Bay's secluded point, the entirely appropriate eccentricity of Noetzie's beach-bound castles and Belvidere's Norman Church, the Garden Route is a romantic's paradise.
• Visiting the worked-out, overgrown goldmines of Millwood, where prospectors indulged in a 19th century fortune-seeking frenzy, the graves of early pioneers seem forever fresh. It seems proper in an area that steals every visitor's heart.
• A treasure trove of history, culture, food, sport and entertainment awaits you between the Overberg and Plettenberg Bay.
