SA; An Awesome Holiday Choice

By Kyle Olsen


South Africa is one of the most preferred vacation locations in the world. Granted, summer is the most popular time of year as this time of year is dry and warm, which allows for plenty to do and see, young and old.

You cannot go wrong when choosing South Africa holidays as your first option. Even us, the residents, Capetonians, Durbanites, Jo'burgers, we know, and appreciate, that our own country has so much to offer in the way of sights and entertainment for everyone, even the "difficult" one in the family will be thrilled and enjoy themselves fully, when coming to SA for a, or "The" vacation.

When you choose to check out South Africa, the logical, 1st option location is Cape Town. Cape Town is referred to as the Mother City and rivals a few of the most beautiful cities in the world. It is said that Cape Town beats Sydney and San Francisco hands down, as the world's finest city. No argument there! And just to make the point stronger, Cape Town has actually gained award after award for World's Cleanest Beach and Africa's Leading Destination, just to mention 2 ... of the twenty two awards!

SA has actually always been known as the Jewel of Africa. SA has an astounding shoreline that runs for over three thousand five hundred kilometers and some of the most gorgeous wine estates and boasts impressive cultural landmarks and tracks.

An additional landmark of Cape Town is the V&A (Victoria and Alfred) Waterfront, which has a large shopping center with a very diverse and big, food court. At night, the V&A changes into a wonderland of sound and light as the bistros fill up and live bands can be heard all over. You can even book a meal on a floating dining establishment and enjoy the waterfront view from the deck of a boat.

There is so much to see in this amazing country, like the majestic mountains and the crystal blue seas at their feet, with their pristine, white beaches along the shore. The West Coast is stunning in its simple beauty with seaside towns and some of the best fish and shellfish you will ever have the enjoyment of sampling. You can also take pleasure in spectacular nature scenes when the wild flowers burst into bloom in the spring, which calls forth all the beautiful birds, for those who enjoy bird watching. For those who want to see something a little larger, there is also whale watching. Awe inspiring!
