Our Neighbourhood Notebook celebrates the stories and lives of those living in the Garden Route, sharing insights into a lifestyle that blends travel with community, and highlighting why the Garden Route remains one of South Africa’s most loved escapes and region to settle and make your home.

The Garden Route stretches along South Africa’s southern coast, a place of natural beauty with long sandy beaches, tranquil lagoons, forests, and magnificent mountains. Towns like Wilderness, Knysna, and Plettenberg Bay offer a rhythm of life that balances outdoor adventure with quiet moments by the sea. It’s a place where sunrise walks and forest hikes become part of everyday living.
Travel here is never just about the destination — it’s about the encounters along the way. From local markets and family‑run guesthouses to whale watching, mountain passes, and hidden farm stays, the Garden Route invites visitors to explore at their own pace. Budget, style, and curiosity all shape the journey.
Beyond the scenery, the Garden Route thrives through creative networks, eco‑projects, and small businesses that form the backbone of this region, offering authentic experiences rooted in community and sustainability.
