Pringle Bay is a quiet coastal village in the heart of a UNESCO World Nature Reserve and lies on the coastal route between Gordon's bay and Hermanus. The village is home to artists and businesspeople working in the city and is the access point to the Hangklip are. Hangklip mountain is a beautiful rock feature along the coast and a renowned crayfish diving and fishing spot. Stay at one of the B&B's, walk the sandy beach and explore rockpools and fynbos-covered mountains. The village has some quaint shops, a cookie factory and excellent restaurants. On route to the world famous whale-watching town of Hermanus, Pringle Bay is an ideal place to view whales mating and giving birth during the winter - from June to December. Only 12km away the Harold Porter Botanical Garden is home to a wide variety of fynbos such as South Africa's national flower, the king Protea. The area is renowned for its indigenous fynbos and has more plant species per square meter than anywhere else on the planet. The nearby town of Betty's Bay hosts the Jackass penguin colony. A one hour drive from Cape Town with Hermanus, Stellenbosch and the wineroute 45 minutes away - Pringle Bay is an ideal destination for nature lovers and a perfect base from which to explore the rich and diverse landscape of the Western Cape.
