About us

Kleinmond lies on a lagoon at the small mouth - hence the name - of the Botriver on a narrow strip of land hugged on the one side by the Palmiet Mountain range and on the other by the Atlantic Ocean.

Kleinmond is one of the four towns that make up the Hangklip-Kleinmond area.
Despite its beauty and relative peacefulness, Kleinmond is the largest of the four coastal towns Traditionally a retirement village, the town comes alive during holiday season and is renowned for large numbers of lobster in summer and whale watching in winter.
This unique area is also referred to as "Where time is only an illusion” Experience a place that offers something of interest for everyone-Where Whales Play & Wild Flowers Bloom - enjoy nature at its best!
