| Physical address........ African Dawn Sanctuary Road Thornhill |
A sanctuary, a volunteer opportunity and a chance to see animals in the wild.
Add a little flavour to your wave route and cruise off the beaten track into the bush. Go bos in the farmhouse bar Dusk till Dawn. Then sleep in boardwalk linked wooden cabins and wake up to the sounds of the wild. Go for a spin in their dune buggy and search for giraffe, zebra and other wild animals. Bitten by the wild bug? Stay and volunteer at their wildlife sanctuary which is home to cheetah, lynx, a croc, small buck and loads of birds.
