Kelly Slater and Andy Irons, two surfing legends, are regulars at the world famous Super Tubes in Jeffreys Bay but even surfing heroes need a break form the surf and in Jeffreys Bay they are sure to find exiting activities to keep them occupied.
Just down the road is the world's highest bungy jump at Bloukrans Bridge and with a jump of 216m it's an adreline junkies dream come true. To gain access to the jump off point in the middle of the bridge a specially-engineered walkway has been constructed underneath the bridge which is an adventure unto itself.
Along the beachfront and through the indigenous coastal bush many walking and hiking trails are to be found that are even popular amongst the locals. If you want to experience the beautiful Eastern Cape at the very beginning of the Garden Route on foot, this is the place to start. Ranging from between 3km to up to 15km there is a selection for the novice or the more experienced hiker, he shorter walks or hikes are ideally suited to family with younger children. Along most of these trails one will find picnic spots and specially-appointed outlook points with spectacular views.
There is a quaint Shell Museum that provides an affordable outing for the whole family. Jeffrey's Bay is known through out the world for its abundant and diverse array of shells along its coastline and even hosts an annual Shell Festival. The museum displays a huge selection of shell species in tastefully arranged display cabinets. There is also a small Shark Aquarium that will give the visitor a glimpse into the many shark species that inhabit the waters along the coast of Jeffrey's Bay.
While Jeffrey's Bay offers the perfect seaside resort with endless prospects of some quality rest & relaxation, there is no opportunity for boredom. Whether you are on a surfing holiday, a family trip, or a business appointment, J'Bay guarantees a fun, convenient stay in an authentic South African environment.
