Wamakersvlei Beach Farm

Accommodation Description

Wamakersvlei Beach Farm is a coastal escape offering five self-catering cottages set across a 400-hectare farm with 7km of pristine beachfront. Each cottage has its own character and views, from ocean-facing retreats to those overlooking the salt pans and mountains. Interiors are simple, spacious and welcoming, with both indoor and outdoor braai facilities making them ideal for year-round stays. Hosting up to 30 guests in total, the farm caters for couples, families and groups seeking an inclusive getaway, with pet-friendly accommodation adding to its appeal. Mosseltrap and Galjoenswaai enjoy Atlantic Ocean views, while Naguiltjie, Skilpadkos and Bokmakierie are set amongst the fynbos and salt pans. Whether staying for a romantic weekend or a larger gathering, the cottages offer privacy, comfort and direct access to nature. With its combination of history, seclusion and raw coastal beauty, Wamakersvlei offers a rare opportunity to reconnect with the land and sea.

Setting Description

Located just 4km from the fishing village of Dwarskersbos, Wamakersvlei Beach Farm showcases the untamed beauty of the West Coast. The vast property spans unspoilt dunes, seasonal wildflowers and fynbos, home to abundant birdlife and small wildlife. Guests can enjoy endless walks along the untouched beach, swim in the surf, or photograph the salt pans at sunset. During spring, the Sandveld comes alive with colourful wildflowers, part of the Cape Floral Kingdom, while year-round opportunities include fishing, cycling, hiking and 4x4 routes. Dolphins are often seen in the waves, and the starlit skies are free from light pollution, perfect for stargazing. The farm’s seclusion is balanced by easy access to surrounding attractions and towns, all less than two hours from Cape Town. This unique mix of beach, fynbos, and salt pan landscapes creates a deeply authentic setting for guests seeking a slower pace and natural connection.
