Camping on South Africa's Longest Beach - The Ultimate Adventure in the Western Cape!

Camping on South Africa’s Longest Beach – The Ultimate Adventure in the Western Cape!

🚐 We set up camp right on the sands of Yzerfontein, home to South Africa’s longest beach — the epic 16 Mile Beach. But this wasn’t just another seaside camping trip… this was a full-blown adventure.

What’s inside:
• 🌅 Beachfront camping at Yzerfontein Caravan Park
• 🧻 A brutally honest ablution block review
• 🏖️ Discovering a buried tractor hidden in the sand (yes, really)
• 🌼 Spring flowers in bloom all around the West Coast
• ☕️ Surprisingly good coffee and baked goods in this sleepy town
• 🚲 A wild attempt to cycle the full 16 miles from Yzerfontein to the West Coast National Park
• 🦭 And the shocking truth behind the mysterious dead seals washing up on the beach

This is the kind of unexpected experience we live for — secret treasures, local legends, floral wonders, and a ride that pushed us (and our e-bike batteries) to the limit. An adventure with sunsets, sand, wildlife, wind, and wheels.

Biscuits and biltong, ek is 'n Weskus-klong.
Beautiful and adventurous for hiking and horse riding as well.
Sleepover and "socializing" around the campfire.
Mooiloop.

My German cousin and his wife walked the 16 mile beach. We collected them in the National Park at the end of their walk. That was January this year.
My nephew has the Wright's craft gin distillery at the Padstal. Worth a visit.

We live in such an awesome country yet most of us sit in our houses everyday and rather watch it on youtube.

Colchester to Woody Cape beach measures approximately 60 kilometers in length.

I fly over this stretch regularly and it is completely unspoilt.

The sand dunes at Woody Cape are almost 320ft in height above sea level.

Woody Cape forms part of the greater Addo Park.

Camping at Woody Cape is possible in a chalet.

Thank you for your enthusiasm to explore places properly!

By which matrix is this deemed the longest beach in South Africa? It seems like you ended up speaking to the only people in Yzerfontein who do not know where the tractor on the beach are. Its such a well known landmark.

The question is if these seals are not removed and other wildlife eat them will it spread further. Rabies in the George area as well.
