Introduction: The names says it all! Wilderness lies 15km east from George and is renowned as much for its natural beauty, vast stretches of beach, tranquility and calm seas, as it is for its tradition of hospitality, which began as far back as the late 1800’s, when the first stone farmhouse was converted into a seaside boarding house.

It is the only village in the country that can boast its own National Park, for the 2500ha Wilderness National Park lies within its boundaries. With five rivers, five lakes and 19km of beach, this sensitive eco-system creates a wetland of international importance.
