West Coast National Park | The West Coast

West Coast National Park, located a short distance inland from Saldanha Bay, is not only a paradise for birds, but also for all who visit it. The brilliant blue waters of the Langebaan Lagoon, unspoilt golden beaches, sheltered islands and salt marshes form the surroundings, attracting migrant waders from the north. In springtime, rainbow-coloured flowers beautify the park’s sandy carpet while antelopes gather in the unique Postberg section. It is a bird-watching paradise, with over 300 recorded avian species, while visitors can also enjoy cycling, hiking, picnicking, whale watching (August to November), game-viewing, kayaking and other water sports.

Namaqua National Park | Namaqualand

Tucked between the towns of Kamieskroon and Springbok, Namaqua National Park lies in the heart of the Namaqualand region of the Northern Cape. The park is renowned for its distinctive flora, particularly the annual bloom of Namaqua daisies in spring, which transforms the arid landscape into a vibrant tapestry of colours. Visiting in early August or September reveals an unforgettable spectacle, as the desert comes alive with flowers in a spectrum of pastels and bold hues. The atmosphere brims with butterflies, birdlife, and the swift buzzing of long-tongued flies, as porcupines, baboons, and various animals roam through the vibrant blanket of flowers. Visitors can traverse the park on foot or by car, with numerous hiking trails to explore.

Tankwa Karoo National Park | Tankwa Karoo National Park

Set on the southern boundary of South Africa’s Northern Cape, the vast, untouched plains of the Tankwa Karoo National Park provide a true escape. With no restaurants, shops, or ATMs, this wild and remote area is the perfect place to immerse oneself in nature. Lunar-like scenes, kaleidoscopic rocks and jaw-dropping sunsets inspire visitors to paint, sketch and photograph. Lying within the Succulent Karoo Biome, the park is dotted with a fantastic diversity of plant life, including several endemic species, which spring to colourful swathes of life after rainfall. Mongoose, tortoise, gemsbok, bat-eared fox, and Cape mountain zebra are just some of the animals that call this oasis home, and visitors enjoying guided night drives may even spot the elusive aardvark. Activities on offer include bird watching, star-gazing, hiking, climbing, and four-wheel drive excursions.
