"West Coast National Park is just about an hour from Cape Town, but feels worlds away from the city's chaos. Anyone who knows about Cape Town beaches will tell you that the Atlantic waters in this part of the world are nippy at best, yet somehow, the coves and lagoons of this park feel at least a few degrees warmer than their counterparts to the south. It's rugged and beautiful, and a great slice of South Africa's distinctive natural landscape." - Sarah Khan
