Situated in the Ugu district, Ramsgate offers 1 campsite. Ugu is a district located on the southern coastline of the KwaZulu-Natal province. The landscape transitions from sandy shores and rocky headlands into lush, rolling green hills and deep river valleys that define the subtropical interior. The regional economy is anchored by a strong tourism sector, commercial sugarcane farming, and forestry operations that take advantage of the high annual rainfall. The natural environment features extensive wetland systems, indigenous forest patches, and marine protected areas. These geographic attributes provide accessible environments for deep-sea fishing, coastal hiking, and exploring diverse wilderness areas along the scenic southern stretch of the province.
The province of KwaZulu-Natal offers a vast range of camping environments stretching from the warm Indian Ocean to the high-altitude peaks of the Drakensberg. Along the eastern seaboard, campers can pitch tents in dense, subtropical coastal dune forests just steps from the beach. Further inland, the Midlands region provides cool, misty conditions with grassy waterside sites and farm-style camping. In the north, the terrain flattens into expansive savanna and wetland systems, where off-grid bush camps border major wildlife reserves. The western boundary is defined by steep basalt mountain cliffs, offering rugged, remote campsites that experience freezing winter temperatures and occasional snow. This diverse geography allows campers to easily transition from humid, sea-level coastal sites to challenging alpine overland routes.

Nestled in the rolling green hills just 1.3 kilometres from Ramsgate's famous Blue Flag beach, Fairhills Caravan Park offers a wonderfully tranquil holiday escape. This is a place where you can unwind in a lush, park-like setting, surrounded by abundant birdlife, while still being just minutes from the sand and surf of the lagoon and ocean. The resort features 44 campsites of various sizes, thoughtfully laid out to accommodate everything from large caravans to smaller tents, with water taps always close at hand. The facilities show a real consideration for camper convenience. A large main ablution block services the upper terrace, while two smaller ablution blocks are strategically placed on the lower levels, ensuring no one has a long walk in the middle of the night. On-site, the resort is geared for family fun with a sparkling swimming pool, trampoline, jungle gym, and even its own nature trail. A unique and charming touch is the "honesty library" located in the laundry room, offering a selection of books to enjoy while you wait. While not all sites have built-in braais, portable units are readily available from the office, ensuring that an evening braai is always an option. It’s this blend of peaceful surroundings and thoughtful amenities that makes Fairhills a beloved South Coast destination.
