Have you ever wished you could have a ‘safari’ experience near the ocean? Mosaic Lagoon Lodge recreates a bush atmosphere with classic safari tents under thatch, complete with safari-style mosquito nets and outdoor showers. Situated on the gorgeous Hermanus lagoon, the lodge is positioned to be in striking distance of the Whale Coast, Overberg wine region and Walker Bay in Hermanus.

If you prefer to stay put, you can easily stretch your legs with nature walks through the fynbos, birding, kayaking on the water or quad and mountain biking if you want to venture even further afield. All tents combine thatch, stone, glass and canvas, and have welcome extras like soaking tubs and wood-fired stoves for chilly nights.
