Self-Catering Campsites in Still Bay

Experience the ultimate classic beach holiday at Preekstoel Caravan Park, a sprawling and beloved resort that is practically on the sands of the beautiful Stilbaai coastline. This is a destination where long, lazy beach days are the main event, and the sound of the ocean is the constant, soothing soundtrack to your stay. The resort's most famous feature is its direct access to the magnificent Preekstoel beach, a stretch of coastline so pristine and well-managed that it has earned coveted Blue Flag status. It's the perfect, safe, and beautiful playground for families and sun-seekers. The beach itself is home to the historic "Preekstoel" (Pulpit) rock formation, a famous natural landmark that gives the resort its name.

Waking up and taking a short stroll to witness this piece of local history is a unique part of the Preekstoel experience, adding a wonderful sense of place to your seaside getaway. The resort is designed to host a vibrant and happy community of holidaymakers. The massive caravan park offers a huge number of camping plots, ensuring a lively and social atmosphere, especially during peak season. The grounds are kept beautifully clean, and the well-maintained ablution facilities cater to the needs of the bustling park. With a variety of self-catering units and a youth hostel also available, the resort is a wonderfully versatile destination for every type of visitor. It is the perfect place to settle in, sip a mocktail, and enjoy the simple, profound pleasures of a holiday by the sea.
