Where you’ll be

Saint Helena Bay, Western Cape, South Africa

Welcome to the Fantastic Golden Mile!

We're not just a holiday destination; we're a chill residential area too. So, let's keep it cool and show some love to the neighbors and local laws.

Get ready for some serious beauty and soothing ocean sounds. Dolphins and whales might pop by on a perfect day! Don't miss a relaxing stroll along the beach—it's a must!

Safety first, peeps! This area is prime and super safe, making it the perfect spot for your getaway.

Hey, just a heads-up, let us know your ETA at least a few hours before you arrive. It helps us prepare the good vibes!

LOCATION:
Saint Helena Bay is pure paradise, surrounded by Vredenburg and Paternoster. Our town is across the bay from Laaiplek. Fishing is a big deal here, and the bay is famous for pelagic fish. Oh, and guess what? Our sunrise is legendary—it rises across the bay, making it one-of-a-kind! Come feel the "calm and tranquil" vibes Vasco da Gama raved about.

AMENETIES & SHOPPING:
Everything you need is right here! Local shops got you covered, and for major shopping sprees, hit up West Coast Mall in Vredenburg, a short 20-min drive. It's just 150km from Cape Town.

TOURISM AND EVENTS:
Prepare for fun times! From dolphin and whale watching to the St Helena Bay Sea Festival, there's never a dull moment. Don't miss attractions like the Cape Columbine Lighthouse, art shops, live-show theater, and delicious restaurants.

SPORT & ADVENTURES:
Game on! Try golfing at Shelley Point's 9-hole links course or gallop on the beach with horse-riding. Surf, fish, and get wild with water sports. And Port Owen offers yachting adventures—perfect for thrill-seekers!

WILDLIFE & NATURE:
Nature lovers, rejoice! Wildlife is diverse here, from steenbok to meerkats, and birdwatchers will spot cranes, herons, and more. Snoek fishing in winter is a blast! Oh, and wait for the stunning flower carpets—it's a floral paradise!

HISTORY:
We're history in the making! Saint Helena Bay is where Vasco da Gama first landed in SA. Named after Saint Helena, a strong Christian influencer and Constantine's mama.

So, pack your bags and join the fun! Let's make memories in our amazing Golden Mile!

Speaks Dutch and English
I’m South African, born and bred, and fluent in Afrikaans and English, with the occasional touch of Dutch. I love travel, diving, reading, and cooking, and enjoy exploring new cuisines and cocktails. Having visited over 24 countries across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, the UK, and Africa, I value meaningful travel experiences, nature, and thoughtful hosting.
