There are plenty of wonderful things to do this Valentine’s Day. The charming, seaside town of Knysna is the perfect place for a romantic getaway with your loved one. Here are some of our top suggestions;
Sunset Cruise
Is there anything more romantic than cruising along the Knysna lagoon at sunset? Hop aboard our motorised pontoon barge for a brief tour of Thesen Island and Brenton-on-Lake where you can see various species of wildlife. Cruise passed the Knysna Heads while enjoying a bottle of wine and snack platter included in the package.
The cruise departs at 17h00 and costs just R500 per person. Email book@turbinehotel.co.za to reserve your spot on this sensational cruise.
Hire A Bicycle
If you and your partner enjoy being active, perhaps hire some bikes from the Turbine Water Club and meander along the coast or through the nearby forest. With such spectacular views, it’s a pity not to explore the area on two wheels!
Helmets and locks are provided. Hiring for two hours is R180 per person while eight hours is R400 per person.
A Romantic Dinner
Join the Turbine‘s Island Café for a romantic, delicious dinner on 14 February 2019 at 19h00. The evening includes a welcome drink, a gift, and an entry into a lucky draw. Prizes for the lucky draw include 2 x spa vouchers (back, neck and shoulder massage), 2 x Sunset Cruises, and 2 x Island Café vouchers.
The Valentine’s Day menu includes an oyster amuse bouche, a classic niçoise salad starter, followed by a palate cleanser before the main course of grilled beef, dauphinoise potatoes, vegetables, and a red wine jus. Finish the evening with an indulgent dessert of dark chocolate mousse, set on a macadamia nut brownie, and accompanied by a tropical fruit salsa.
