He lived on the outside of town
With his wife and five children
And his cabin fallin’ down…

One of the best known landmarks in Plettenberg Bay on the Garden Route is the Beacon Isle Hotel. Beacon Island is at the mouth of the Piesang River and has a history that goes back to 1771. In that year the first navigational beacon was erected on the island. The original was a square block of stinkwood, inscribed with the latitude and longitude of Plettenberg Bay, and erected to enable mariners to check their location and chronometers. It also gave Beacon Island its name. The wooden beacon was replaced by Captain Sewell with a stone one in 1881 and has been replaced a couple of times over the years. It can be seen in the gardens of the hotel.

Jacaranda City is the perfect place to explore, and Hard Rock Cafe Pretoria is the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day of adventures. Just as Pretoria is known as a vision in purple due to Jacaranda’s plentiful blossoms, Hard Rock Cafe is known for its hot and flavorsome cuisine and rock star style. Even rock stars need to dial it down a notch, and there isn’t a better setting in town to take it easy than our Pretoria cafe.
