Parking can get a bit difficult in silly season, but there's two parking lots to choose from. They also have restro...

île de païn - lunch & breakfast restaurant & artisan bakery

👍👍 Very popular breakfast spot for the locals, and it's not difficult to understand why. From the very friendly and professional waitron staff, who know the locals by name by now. To the incredible food and baked goods which are on offer.

Caffe Mario Knysna
Italian restaurant
👍👍 The food and atmosphere is wonderful. The waiters are full off life and are enjoying what they are doing. It is such a refreshing difference to the rest of Knysna. I would highly recommend it to anyone. It is family friendly with probably the best pizza this side of Italy.

Anchorage Restaurant CC
Seafood restaurant
👍 I had the platter for one. The grilled calamari tubes were amazing, as were the prawns. The grilled gurnard which was the linefish of the day was surprising tasty. Only the mussels were disappointing. They tasted like it was out of a can. All served with savoury rice, tartare sauce and a delicious l...

Bollards Bay Beach
Scenic spot
👍👍 A calm and tranquil beach. It can be accessed from leisure island. You can get a really great view of the Knysna heads from here. It is one of my favorite beaches in knysna, the water is warm and when the tide goes out you can walk really far out into the knysna lagoon.
