Simbavati Fynbos on Sea

Your Eco-Paradise awaits...

Situated above the quaint town of Sedgefield, along South Africa’s Garden Route, the lodge offers sweeping views over beaches, mountains, lagoons, and a fynbos wonderland.

Simbavati Fynbos on Sea is perched high above the dunes overlooking the Indian Ocean, surrounded by a 600-hectare pristine fynbos wilderness and a working protea farm. The conservancy abounds with plains game such as eland, zebra, bushbuck, and waterbuck, so there is plenty to see in all directions.


Close to but off the conservancy, discover lovely fossil dunes and beaches, kayak on the Swartvlei and Sedgefield lagoons, visit the neighbouring protea farm. In summer at low tide, snorkelling in the
rockpools can be a treat. More excitement still? This area is a big draw for advanced paragliding. Invigorating sunrises and romantic sunsets will make this an unforgettable stay.

Fynbos is a distinctive part of the Cape Floral Kingdom, the smallest but most abundant and diverse Floral Kingdoms in the world.
