About

A stretch of coastline at Keurboomstrand near Plettenberg Bay, Poortjies is split by Bitou Municipality into a dog-on-lead section toward the caravan park and a dog-friendly section toward Milkwood Manor, part of a wider Garden Route zoning system that protects nesting shorebirds. Since a rabies scare in local seal populations in September 2024, leashing has been required across all Plett beaches as a precaution. Waste bins are provided near the beach entrances.

Pet policy

Note from SitnStay: Bitou Municipality zones Poortjies as both a dog-on-lead beach (toward the caravan park) and a dog-friendly beach (toward Milkwood Manor); since September 2024 all dogs on Plett beaches must stay leashed at all times due to a rabies risk linked to local seals. Owners must clean up waste; non-compliance can draw a fine.
