Fun things to do in Tsitsikamma are snorkeling or scuba diving in the sea at the Storms River Mouth, or kayak up the beautiful, deep, black gorge where you can look up between the rugged vertical cliffs at a thin sliver of sky.

The Tsitsikamma National Park is possibly one of the most beautiful places on the planet and, with its rugged coastline, beautiful forests, and amazing rivers and waterfalls, it’s also an adventure paradise.

Hike along the coast from the SANParks camp to one beautiful B&B after another, or take a slightly more challenging trek through the mountains. You can swing through the trees on a treetop canopy tour, or do a zip line slide across the top of a waterfall, go abseiling or do a quad bike tour of the forest.

Geez, if that’s not enough, do the highest bungee jump in the world. There is just so much to do here, you’ll need at least a week.
