Things To Do Whilst On Holiday in Eastern Cape

As the second largest province in South Africa, the Eastern Cape boasts sheer diversity. Its range of landscapes includes the mesmerising desert of the Great Karoo, the roaring waves of the Wild Coast and the snowy mountains of the Drakensberg.

For those seeking adventure, there are top surfing beaches and one of the highest bungee jumps in the world, besides world-class hiking trails and skiing.

Weather

Climate in the Eastern Cape is, as would be expected, highly varied due to the massive extension of the province. The west tends to be dry and have hot summers and cold winters. The east has typical subtropical temperatures and summer rain, whereas the interior can be very cold in winter, sometimes with heavy snowfall.
