Things to do
Wilderness dates back to the late 1800s and is ideal for seaside holidays.
It is renowned for its vast stretches of beach, its peace and tranquillity and the absence of windswept headlands and wild, stormy seas.
There are many recreational activities including hiking, dolphin/whale-watching, paragliding, horse riding, mountain biking, scenic drives, Wilderness Lakes Art Route, day tours, ferry cruises, angling, boating and other water sports.
The Friday Night Market is hosted weekly in the village, with pubs and good restaurant food.
The famous Map of Africa Viewpoint offers fantastic views of the Kaaimans River Valley and an ocean vista rivalled by few. Another great viewpoint is Dolphin's Point which gives a magnificent view of the ocean for miles and was named after the number of dolphins which can be spotted from here on a regular basis as well as Southern Right whales during the winter months during their breeding season.
