A south-coast golf trip: pick George or Knysna, not both
The Garden Route has more good golf packed into a 200km strip of coast than just about anywhere else in South Africa. Two natural bases — George at the western end, Knysna in the middle — and you really don't want to travel between them mid-trip. Pick one base, play what's nearby, save the rest for next time.

A premium weekend: Hermanus and Arabella
If you've got a weekend and want to play two of the finest courses in South Africa back-to-back, Hermanus and Arabella are the answer. About ninety minutes from Cape Town, both layouts sit on the edge of the Walker Bay coast — tournament-rated, properly conditioned, and worth every cent of the green fee.

Boys' weekend: Worcester and Robertson
Two days, two rounds, two of the most underrated courses in the Western Cape. Worcester and Robertson are about ninety minutes from Cape Town, won't punish your wallet, and don't take themselves too seriously. The right kind of golf trip for a fourball that's more interested in catching up than catching pins.
