Grootbos Private Nature Reserve

Nestled between mountain and sea, Grootbos Private Nature Reserve is a 5-star eco-paradise showcasing the incredible Flora and Marine life of the Southern Tip of Africa. Grootbos Private Nature Reserve is about more than just luxury and eco adventures. It is this core philosophy of conservation linked with social development that has made Grootbos an award-winning world leader in responsible tourism.

Home of the “Marine Big 5” – whales, sharks, dolphins, seals and penguins; and with unparalleled floral diversity, Grootbos offers you a one-of-a-kind luxury African experience. This rugged stretch of South African coastline snakes along the Atlantic Ocean, with magnificent mountains rising up on the other side. The spectacular scenery is made up of charming seaside villages, farms, rivers, coves and valleys, and during the right season, the region’s namesake – whales – can be seen cruising and wallowing in the coastal waters.
