Knysna South Africa - The Heart of the Garden Route | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Located on South Africa’s famous Garden Route, Knysna (pronounced as ‘ny-zah’), is one of the country’s most famous locations. It is a natural paradise of lush, indigenous forests, tranquil lakes, wildlife and golden beaches. The breathtakingly pretty lagoon is now a protected marine reserve that is home to the extraordinary sea horse and over 200 species of fish.
The endangered Knysna seahorse is named after the town and can be spotted during a good snorkeling session in the estuary.
We really enjoyed the view from the heads - a striking geological spot made up of a pair of huge, brightly coloured cliffs lying at the mouth of the lagoon, flanking a channel of potentially treacherous water that flows into Knysna lagoon. We were told that from the banks of the rocks we could see whales because Knysna is on the migratory route of the Southern Right and other species but unfortunately we weren't able to see one these marine mammals.
Enjoy the video and let us know where you’re watching from!

Knysna (South-Africa) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Knysna in South-Africa.
Two impressive sandstone cliffs known as The Heads flank the magnificent lagoon of Knysna on the South African coast close to the Indian Ocean. The Knysna Lagoon is not only popular with tourists as the combination of both salt and freshwater from the Outeniqua Mountains also attracts many endangered species of fish. The lagoon is home to the rare Knysna Seahorse that is otherwise known as the Hipocampus Capensis. Moving inland from the estuary and the two Heads the water becomes increasingly calm. Indeed it is difficult to believe that only a few kilometres away lies one of the most treacherous and feared coastlines in the world. But beyond the lagoon's rocks and boulders all is peaceful and idyllic, a place where ornithologists can observe a large variety of birdlife. Due to its magnificent location close to forests, mountains and ocean in addition to its increasing number of leisure facilities, Knysna is one of South Africa's most popular Garden Route destinations.

Visit Knysna - Knysna Tourism South Africa - Africa Travel Channel
Located thirty-four degrees south of the equator, with its name being derived from the Khoikhoi word, meaning Ferns, Knysna is a holiday town on the Garden Route, in South Africa. Having been voted South Africa's favourite holiday destination twice makes it truly a destination where fun is a prerequisite. With George Airport, just 60km away, you have no excuse not to frequent this oasis of possibilities.
Surrounded by lush forests, crystal clear lakes and golden beaches accompanied by balmy summer days, truly reflects the allure of this town once known as sleepy hollow now a bustling lagoon side community.
The town is primarily located on the northern shore of a warm water estuary, fed by the Knysna River. The estuary leads to the Indian Ocean after flowing between two headlands. These are referred to as The Heads, and have become synonymous with Knysna.

Knysna Lagune Küste 2015 - Südafrika Tour Part 6 of best spots Knysna
Michael Schellberg reist mit ASH Stiebel und SUE Brandt durch Südafrika und dreht Flugvideos mit Flugzeug und Drone
mehr Videos hier :
Ein Ausflug nach Kranshoeck an der Küste der Gardenroute im Western Cape Südafrika und ein kurzer Film über die Lagune von Knysna, dem kleinen Touristen Ort, der das Zentrum der Garden Route bildet. ( Musik von beatz@aries-4rce-beatz.com )
Lage ( Location )
Knysna liegt an einer rund 20 Quadratkilometer großen Lagune, die nur durch eine schmale felsige Einfahrt – die Knysna Heads – mit dem Indischen Ozean verbunden ist. Im Hinterland der Stadt steigen die Outeniqua-Berge auf, die wie die gesamte Umgebung dank eines ausgeglichenen Klimas und über das ganze Jahr verteilter Niederschläge eine dauerhaft grüne Vegetation zeigen.
Das Klima Knysnas ist ganzjährig mild. Am wenigsten Regen gibt es im Winter. Der jährliche Durchschnitt liegt bei 770 mm. Die durchschnittliche Temperatur im Januar ist 26 °C; im Winter (von Juni bis August) sinkt sie bis auf ungefähr 18 °C. Der Indische Ozean ist bei Knysna so warm, dass man auch im Winter baden kann.
In der Umgebung von Knysna liegt der Knysna Forest. Der Wald wurde in der Vergangenheit durch die Forstwirtschaft teilweise ausgebeutet. Heute ist er, als ein Naturerbe Südafrikas, besonders geschützt und wird nur noch unter sehr strengen Auflagen nachhaltig bewirtschaftet.
Dieser ursprüngliche Wald ist die Heimat der Elefanten von Knysna. Diese Elefanten leben zurückgezogen in den Wäldern. Ihre genaue Zahl ist nicht bekannt. Nach neueren Untersuchungen von Gareth Patterson konnten fünf weibliche Elefanten und ein Elefantenbulle in dem Waldgebiet nachgewiesen werden. Außerdem gibt es Elefanten im Knysna Elephant Park nahe der Stadt.
Im örtlichen Township von Knysna Rastafari-Community befindet sich die größte Rastafari-Community Südafrikas. Die dort lebenden Rastafari empfangen Gäste, die im Rahmen einer Township-Tour zu Besuch kommen und führen sie in die Lebensweisen der Gemeinschaft ein. Einmal im Jahr findet dort im August ein großes Fest statt, zu dem Rastafaris von weit her kommen.
Ein Projekt der Rastafaris ist der sogenannte Eco-Trail. Die ortsfremden Eukalyptuswälder in der Region werden abgeholzt und mit einheimischen Hölzern wieder aufgeforstet. Der Eco-Trail ist ein Waldlehrpfad, der als Beitrag zum Gemeinwesen und als ökologische Touristenattraktion angelegt wurde
