Campsites in Buffalo City

Yellow Sands Caravan Park enjoys a prime coastal position at the mouth of the Kwelera River, just a 25-kilometre drive east of East London. What was once a family dairy farm has been transformed over generations into a beloved holiday destination. For nearly six decades, the Leppan family has welcomed campers to this special spot, and this long history of family ownership is reflected in the park's welcoming atmosphere and meticulous upkeep. The park features 150 well-maintained campsites, many of which offer sought-after views of either the river or the ocean. This unique setting creates a natural playground for all ages. The river mouth provides a calm, shallow area perfect for younger children to paddle in, while also being a popular spot for fishing and kayaking. Just steps away, the beach opens up for surfing, long walks, and sunbathing. All campsites are level, grassed, and equipped with electrical points, ensuring a comfortable setup for your tent or caravan. A continuous commitment to improvement means the shared ablution facilities are consistently clean and modern. The thoughtful layout of the park ensures that no matter where you are situated, you are always just a short, easy walk from both the beach and the bathrooms. It’s this combination of a stunning location, practical facilities, and family pride that makes Yellow Sands a classic Eastern Cape holiday choice.

True to its evocative name, Nature's Rest is a destination that invites you to leave the world behind and find a deep, restorative connection with the natural world. This beautiful and secluded resort is a true hidden gem, nestled in a sheltered valley on the banks of a tranquil lagoon estuary just outside East London. While the convenience of "the city with holiday town spirit" is just a short drive away, the resort itself feels like a world of its own, a peaceful haven where you can truly relax and unwind. The geography of the resort is spectacular and unique. The beautiful Zamnyana River carves its way through the hills that encircle the park, creating a dramatic landscape of tall, rocky cliffs and, most wonderfully, a series of crystal-clear rock pools below. These natural swimming holes are a delight for all ages, offering a refreshing and magical place to cool off. For those who prefer the sand and surf, a safe and beautiful bathing beach is just a pleasant ten-minute walk away, a stretch of coastline so secluded it is almost exclusively used by the resort's visitors. The camping experience is designed to be comfortable, classic, and in harmony with the peaceful surroundings. The well-demarcated, semi-shaded grass sites provide a lovely, clean base for your tent or caravan. These are all supported by clean and well-maintained bathrooms with the welcome promise of "piping hot water" for your showers. A fully equipped scullery and a convenient, coin-operated laundry add a layer of practical comfort to your stay. With a welcoming policy for dogs by prior arrangement, Nature's Rest truly offers a complete and unforgettable natural escape.
