Scottburgh beach

This beach is truly enchanting. We visit it daily, parking our car and observing the multitude of people swimming or simply unwinding on the sandy shore. Our adoration for this place knows no bounds.

Tinley Manor beach II

10 Vast Expanse

What a delightful discovery for those living nearby. Our initial experience left a lasting impression, and we'll undoubtedly return. The beach was exceptionally pristine and serene, with the added bonus of a tidal pool located near one of the parking lots. The elevated parking areas offer stunning views of both the crashing waves and the expansive ocean. Sitting in your car and taking in these peaceful surroundings is truly an enjoyable experience.

Tinley Manor beach I

10 Fabs Mal

Stunning. The scenery is absolutely amazing and the service is unparalleled. We were provided with the finest accommodation for our first-year celebration with a lovely note and flower petals adorning the bed. Additionally, we were welcomed by a lovable companion named Dude who greets visitors with a wide grin. We will certainly return.

Ezembeni beach

10 Chonared Solo

The beach provides excellent wheelchair accessibility, allowing for the integration of disabled individuals and enabling them to have a pleasant experience.
