with temperate weather, exciting activities to enjoy and indulge in, no matter what time of the year you visit

GweGwe Beach Lodge is an all year-round destination

No matter when you visit, GweGwe Beach Lodge offers a rich tapestry of experiences shaped by the seasons, the ocean, the land, and the local culture. From natural spectacles to active adventures and meaningful moments of rest—there’s always something to see, do, or discover.

Whether it’s for the Sardine Run (June & July) or Whale Season (June to August & October to November) or simply to enjoy the many wonders of one of the top bio-hotspots of the world, you can do so in luxurious comfort, with adventurous activities to experience, simply relaxing, or community interactions. There is something for everyone, all year round!

Coastal Comfort, year round

Mild Winters, Perfect Summers

Mkambati is a true year-round destination. With its temperate climate, the Wild Coast offers warm, sunny days in winter and blissfully moderate summer heat—without the heavy humidity found further up the coast. Sea temperatures range from a balmy 24°C to 27°C in summer, and a very comfortable 19°C to 21°C in winter, making the ocean inviting no matter the season.
Our rates vary throughout the year based on seasonality and demand:
  • Classic season: Quiet season: 21 April to 15 June & 1 August to 30 September and Summer season: 01 March to 20 April & 01 October to 19 December
  • Peak Season: Sardine Run from 16 June to 31 July
  • Festive season: year-end holidays from 20 December to 6 January 2025
