Location
The Garden Route is situated on the east coast of South Africa and is true to its name – being world famous for its diversity, beauty and mild climate. Spectacular scenery includes a pristine coastline, huge wetlands, salt marshes, rivers, mountains crowded closely to the shoreline, tall indigenous forests, vividly coloured wild flowers and the unique fynbos flora.
Projects are based in various areas of the Garden Route, including near the popular holiday destinations of Mossel Bay and Knysna. Both have all amenities that you will need and are situated along a picturesque coastline.
Accommodation
You will be based in simple, clean, dorm style accommodation at our cosy volunteers house, located in Knysna, as well as on-site at the various reserves and national parks. Private, twin or family rooms are available on request.
Should you wish to travel outside of the project during your stay, we will happily recommend safe, comfortable accommodation in the Garden Route.
Meals
All meals will be provided – all healthy, hearty food – some ready made and some do-it-yourself.
- Breakfast: Light selection of breads, cereals, fruits, tea, coffee and juice
- Lunch: Sandwiches, salads, pitas, bread rolls or wraps
- Dinner: A few ready cooked dinners and the rest left to your own tastes. All ingredients and menu plans will be provided.
You can expect a range of many different dishes. All meals are prepared according to your specific tastes as best as possible. Specific food requirements, however, are only subject to request.
