Sunset on Wilderness Beach


Wilderness Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in South Africa.......and perhaps the world.
These pristine sands stretch for miles and miles.
If you are lucky enough to be on the beach at sunset, you are often rewarded with the most spectacular show.
Sea Paradise is right on the beach and every room faces the sea.
Sit on one of the decks and enjoy a glass of wine. Drink a toast to the best that nature has to offer.

The whales are here


At the moment we have a lot of whale sightings right in front of the guesthouse. Often they are surrounded by huge amounts of dolphins. Is this the annual "hello" gathering? I wonder.
Some early signs of spring abound. The birds are more active, the Buddhlejas are starting to to flower and spread their perfume.
Early pelargoniums are starting to flower,.....all in all a wonderful awakening of nature, especially after some good winter rains.

Wilderness is still natural enough to experience the magic of nature in life, like breakfasting alongside the whales.

Our wilderness guesthouse can accommodate 12 guests comfortably.

After the World Cup


So the World Cup is drawing to a close and I think one can expect feelings of living in a vacuum.
Time to get creative and find some good local things to do.

Maybe you are thinking of travelling up the Garden Route, in which case, pop in for a few nights. The Wilderness Nature Reserve is truly unspoilt, a great relaxing escape and surrounds the village.
Whether one feels like walking in the forest or on the beach, paragliding, mountain biking, jogging or canoeing up the Serpentine River, the choices are endless for that magnificent experience of simply living.

Add a dose of some good food venues and Winter becomes fun.

See you sometime in our Gateway to the Garden Route where the sun shines in Winter.

We offer guest house accomodation in Wilderness.

Business travellers getaway


Many business travellers along the Garden Route have started to make Sea Paradise a definite business accommodation stopover,
preferring to stay here as an alternative to George accommodation.

How great it is to head back to the beach at the end of a working day, and within walking distance have a choice of 12 restaurants and some friendly bars for drinks where there most certainly will be some interesting locals.

Alternatively if fishing or cycling is your thing, the beach is on your doorstep and the gravel roads are loads of fun for mountain bikers.

For repeat business travellers we have now started a `loyal friends` rate. This actually applies to all of you on return visits to our guest house. On booking, please mention that you have stayed before.

We look forward to having you shortly.

P.S. Our winters are cosy with heater blankets and heated rooms.

Cave Dwellers on the coast


This is an interior shot of a cave just 15 minutes walk away from the guest house. Yes, you`re right, there are people living here.
This used to be a restaurant. Since the local Tchoe Tchoe train has stopped running here, this restaurant closed.
Now there are people living in the cave. They have running water and ablutions but no electricity and no way to close off!! It must get very cold here in Winter with no sunshine entering the cave and loads of moisture in the air.

Interesting and just a bit wacky. Mobiles of shells adorn the ceiling and dining room tables are set for a banquet.

A lovely walk along the railway tracks and in full view of the ocean leads to the cave.

Miles to walk


Wilderness beach must be one of the longest stretches of unspoilt beach along the Garden Route. One can walk forever.
In fact one could walk to Sedgefield, and what is really great, is that one is often completely alone in this nature paradise, just the ocean the sand, some sea gulls and Oyster Catchers and the endless blue sky.

Sound like fun?

See you in Wilderness sometime.

6km inland and in the hills


Just 5 minutes drive behind Wilderness and up the Serpentine Pass lies a wonderful surprise of rural scenery complete with indigenous forested wilderness corridors and mountain backdrops.

This a always a worthwhile drive especially at the end of the day when the lighting changes and the colours mellow.
This particular shot is taken in Hoekwil an agricultural village. In the background are the Outeniqua Mountains.
If you translate this word from the original Khoisan language, it means..."land of milk and honey".

This road automatically winds its way to the old George-Knysna rd, which lies parallel to the N2.
So there are some wonderful circular driving routes.
