Margaret´s Viewpoint
Observation deck
👍👍 The best view in Knysna, maybe even the whole Garden route. Best of all is that it doesn't require any effort. Simply drive to the parking and walk 50m to the edge. Thereafter, simply drive down the road and walk on the beach you just viewed from a 100m up. Amazing!
