Kaaimans River Beach

Where the Kaaimans River meets the sea near Wilderness, this scenic stretch offers a dramatic backdrop of forested hills rather than crowds. Driftwood collects along the sand, and a wide sandbank is exposed at low tide, popular with sunbathers. Nearby self-catering cottages describe it as dog-friendly, welcoming dogs of any size to explore the shore, though the adjoining Knysna estuary and surrounding forest areas keep tighter rules on dogs.
