BEACH RESORTS IN SOUTH AFRICA
 
Looking for a laid back beach resort town in South Africa to visit month of April with small inn type places to stay.

Hi Marge <BR>I would suggest that you head off to the Eastern cape at that time of year. Port Elizabeth is great at that time of year....great beaches and l;ovely people!

Port Elizabeth is so laid back you might just forget to get out of bed. Try Durban for a better beach resort.Much better atmosphere and a whole lot more to do.

Hello Marge, <BR>Keep in mind that April (Easter vacation) in South Africa is a popular vacation period and the popular resorts do get crowded. Depending if you are wanting to swim in cold waters - the Cape is lovely - a beautiful spot is Keurboom Strand on the garden route - The Beach House? if I recall is on the beach and very personable. There is a publication available listing guest homes in South Africa that may assist you. Please feel free to contact me with further questions. <BR>Allana
