Visitors to the area can explore modern shopping centres, shop for art and crafts, play a game of golf or enjoy a scrumptious meal at one of the myriad of dining venues.
Pinnacle Point is on the Garden Route, 400 kms from both PE and Cape Town and a 40 minute drive from George airport. The closest town is Mossel Bay
About Mossel Bay
Mossel Bay’s geographical setting is well known as the halfway mark between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, with the nearest neighbours in George, Oudtshoorn and Albertinia along the N2 route. Once a small town, Mossel Bay has grown beyond its earliest discovery as a holiday destination when the Afrikaans Language and Cultural Society bought the coastal farm of Hartenbos east of Mossel Bay in 1936, that became the famous self catering holiday resort to have boosted incoming tourism.
The discovery of offshore gas in the 1980’s that was later piped ashore to the Mosgas refinery, led to it becoming one of the world’s largest gas to liquids refineries now known as Petro SA. This was followed by an influx of new residents. Many were blue collar workers employed at the refinery and small commercial harbour with a fishing fleet, while others were attracted by local industry and a secure coastal lifestyle.
When searching for property for sale in Mossel Bay, you will find a number of different suburban areas and private estates, both coastal and inland.
This town has no shortage of state and private educational institutions, and boasts five secondary and 21 primary schools. For those keen on outdoor entertainment there is the Ethno-botanic Garden with a special Braille Trail facility, as well as the magnificent field gardens.
Adventure enthusiasts who enjoy caving can explore the famous Pinnacle Caves as well as the Cape St. Blaize Caves at the Point Area. In addition to a number of Outeniqua mountain hiking trails there is Mossel Bay’s iconic 12.5 km Cape St Blaize trail that forms part of the Oystercatcher Trail, starting at the historic St Blaize Lighthouse.
Some of the most popular activities in the area include wine tasting, an authentic big 5 safari at Gondwana Game Reserve, or for the more adventurous - an adrenalin filled shark cage dive!
