If your’e travelling to Knysna, we recommend car hire in George as the drive from Cape Town is roughly 5-6 hours.

Is there anything more spectacular than an electric sunset from the Knysna Heads, looking back over the lagoon and Knysna Town. Photo by @scrumpyjackson Photo selected by @sharynhodges
