Our home town.
Wilderness is the small town between George and Sedgefield where the Touws River meets the sea – a long beach, a lagoon, and a chain of lakes behind the dunes. It is where we live, so this page gets the most attention.
Where to stay in Wilderness
Guesthouses and self-catering along the beach road, farm stays up Whites Road, and camping for anyone who wants the quiet.
Where to eat and drink
A short list, mostly along the beach road and the village – which is exactly why the good ones are worth knowing about.
What to do
The beach and the lagoon, the Map of Africa viewpoint, the Touws River by canoe, and the mountain passes behind the town.
