Knysna Essentials

Knysna’s geography is defined by its expansive lagoon and the two massive sandstone cliffs known as The Heads. This selection covers the town's most significant sites, from the 800-year-old Outeniqua Yellowwoods in the ancient Diepwalle Forest to the Jack Nicklaus-designed Simola Golf Course. It highlights key vantage points overlooking the Indian Ocean inlet, the central marina hub for regional seafood, and protected eco-reserves accessible only by ferry.
