Signature dishes that incorporate the flavours and natural ingredients of the Garden Route have been designed by Peter Tempelhoff and SeaFood’s culinary team to reflect a taste of the bay. Set in a contemporary, relaxed environment, with an emphasis on fresh fish, SeaFood at The Plettenberg showcases a sustainable taste of the region.

The Sandbar Leading off The Sun Lounge of The Plettenberg, The Sandbar is an exquisite, contemporary cocktail bar and lounge frequented by both local patrons, as well as the South African elite who choose to holiday in Plettenberg Bay.

Throughout the day, The Sandbar is the perfect meeting spot for drinks and tea, and in the evenings it is ideal for enjoying award-winning South African wines, a variety of champagnes and an array of carefully crafted signature cocktails.
