Cape South Coast
Until November 2010, Overberg, Walker Bay, and Cape Agulhas were stand-alone districts, not assigned to a region. On the coast southeast of Stellenbosch, they have pioneered the ongoing exploration of cooler growing areas. The newly defined region includes these three districts and continues east through Swellendam, formerly a district of Breede River Valley, to Plettenberg Bay, crossing into the Eastern Cape province. It shares the coast with the well-traveled Garden Route, a popular tourist drive featuring pristine beaches and consistently mild weather. |
