GORDON'S BAY

A popular fishing harbour and holiday resort. Bikini Beach, small but sheltered from the wind, is popular with holiday-makers. The scenic Steenbras Dam lies at the top of the Hottentots Holland range, only a few kilometres from Gordon's Bay. Developed as a major recreational area, it also offers recreational facilities and trout fishing. A lovely coastal drive may be made from Gordon's Bay to Koegel Bay, Pringle Bay, Kleinmond, Hermanus and back over Sir Lowry's Pass.
