Scottburgh is home to thousands of bird species including the brilliantly coloured Knysna and Purple-crested Lourie and a wide variety of waterfowl, vervet monkeys, dolphins and whales. Scottburgh is a thriving coastal resort and a perfect holiday destination. With a year-round sub-tropical climate and warm waters, it is an ideal snorkeling, swimming, diving and surfing destination. It also boasts a fine selection of accommodation establishments, restaurants and after-dark activities.
