The golf course just outside Vredenburg, has earned its reputation as one of the best and is extremely popular.

Jacobsbaai

Jacobsbaai is a beautiful isolated Bay a few kilometers north of Saldanha Bay with a sea frontage of about 2 km. Its interesting coastline has peninsulas, rocky and sandy bays with cosy beaches and an abundance of seafood, crayfish, fish, mussels and abalone. Jacobsbaai is often referred to as " Namaqualand by the sea" since its wild flowers is breathtakingly beautiful in spring.
