About Kleinzee Beach
High up the western coast, where the land becomes more rugged and the smiles broader, you’re bound to find some excellent accommodation in the Northern Cape. The Kleinzee Beach and its little town of the same name is a tranquil escape from the hubbub of the city life, and a celebration of the untouched beauty of an authentic South African fishing village. This is a great place for a weekend getaway or family holiday.
But, although it retains the charm of the look and feel of a real seaside village, Kleinzee Beach is becoming more and more popular for the excellent restaurants near its shores. Here, locally farmed abalone and oysters can be enjoyed at leisure; best savoured with an ice-cold beer or a glass of South African wine.
Kleinzee Beach is also just perfectly pretty. Its ivory-coloured sands are warmed by the sun and cooled by the Atlantic Ocean; and are perfect for lazy strolls, a game of Frisbee, or building the perfect sand castles. The water temperature is fairly cold – averaging about 16.6 degrees Celsius (or 62 degrees Fahrenheit) in summer. But, this is super-refreshing on a sweltering summer’s day; especially for surfers and paddlers in wetsuits.
There are some shipwrecks lying on the age-old sands of Kleinzee Beach too. These rusty remnants lie like eerie skeletons of the past explorers that lost a brave war against the elements for which this stretch of the South African coastline are known. These make spectacular backdrops to your photographs and are such fun for little ones to explore.
Kleinzee Beach is just over 90 minutes away from Springbok, and the same distance from the spectacular Namaqua National Park.
