A heaven-sent hamlet on a swath of pristine beach, Nature’s Valley has the distinction of being completely surrounded by National Parks-protected land. Set within the Tsitsikamma coastal forest, the village marks the end of the Otter Trail, with a gorgeous lagoon spilling on to a majestic beach. If you’re choosing a beach for that once-in-a-lifetime sunset, gather a warm blanket and picnic basket and take a trip down to little-known Bakoven at the southern point of Camps Bay.
