Stillbay or Stilbaai (afrikaans) was first mentioned in a dispatch from Civil Commissioner B. Osler of Riversdale, dated 14th September 1895 to the Surveyor General. This beautiful seaside resort is also known as the Bay of Sleeping Beauty. It is one of the most attractive destinations along the fantastic Whale Coast between Cape Agulhas and the start of the Garden Route.

The town’s way of life is centred around the placid sea and river estuary which are visible from virtually any vantage point creating a unique ambience experienced by all who visit Stillbay.
The white sandy beaches are excellent and the absolutely clean ocean and river waters are perfect for any water sport activity.
