Half way between Cape Town and Port
Elizabeth on the Garden Route Coast lies the coastal fishing and holiday
village of Mossel Bay - home of Bartolomeu Dias' landing and museum complex,
including the Old Post Office Tree.
Huijs Te Marquette is situated, near
the Khoi San Cave, one of the most scenic vantage points in Mossel Bay.

| The elegant yet friendly interior

Enjoy the company of friends in
the cosy Sleepers Bar, or snuggle up to a crackling fireplace during the
cooler winter months.
For the sun lovers, enjoy a relaxing
time next to our sparkling swimming pool.
Many hours can be spent discovering
the cultural diversity of Mossel Bay. The town's history dates back
to the landing of Bartolomeu Dias in 1488 and is well documented in the
many interesting museums and historical buildings. |
For the more adventurous there is:
-
Shark cage diving,
-
Bungi jumping,
-
Fishing trips on a trawler or fishing
boat,
-
Excellent walks along the beach or St.
Blaze Trail, overlooking the sea from the plateau,
-
and boat trips to Seal Island with thousands
of seals, plus the possibility to see whales close-up (July-December),
dolphins and the Great White Shark!
Mossel Bay boasts the 2nd most moderate
climate in the world, with north facing beach fronts. Long stretches of
golden beach, azure coloured sea and bright Mediterranean sky makes this
quaint, unhurried town the ideal destination from which to discover the
Garden Route. |
