About this place
Ebb-and-Flow lies in the Wilderness section of the Garden Route National Park, on the bank of the Touw River where it winds through indigenous forest towards the sea. This is a soft, green landscape of rivers, lakes and forested hills, very different from the country's drier reserves, and the camp makes an ideal base for exploring it on foot or by water.
The appeal here is gentle and active in equal measure. Visitors can hire a canoe and drift along quiet backwaters, follow forest paths, watch for whales and dolphins from the coast, or settle into one of the bird hides to take in the area's rich bird life, from kingfishers to herons and egrets. None of it demands great fitness, and there is something for every pace.
Accommodation ranges from riverside campsites to log cabins raised on stilts among the trees. The camp keeps facilities modest, with shops, restaurants and services close by in the village of Wilderness, a short distance from George.
