Summer holidays in Fish Hoek mean ocean sports and beach fun. At Seaside Cottages, the warmer mornings and teasing southeasterly breezes pre-empt a summer packed with energy and so much to do.
As Christmas approaches, the local ocean sports calendar is packed — paddlers, lifesavers, fishermen, and sailors are already lining up for a season full of action.
Whether you’re into surfski racing, canoe training, kayak paddling, or just cheering from the beach, something is happening almost every week.
Make Seaside Cottages your home away from home as you throw yourself into a December holiday like no other.

August is Women's Month in South Africa. This year, the theme for National Women’s Day is "Accelerate Action". It is indeed time to speed up progress towards gender equality. It is time to increase investment in women's development and address issues like the gender pay gap, lack of representation, and gender-based violence.

Women’s Day is a celebration for all women living in South Africa’s present who have dreams for the future. It's a reminder of how far we’ve all come — and how much further we can all still go. Every year, this unique feminine holiday is packed with festivities, activism, reflection, and community events. This year is no different.
