George is the de Facto capital of the Garden Route, its largest town
by far, and the only one with an airport of any real significance. It's
not on the coast, but the lovely Victoria Bay, which is one of the
prettiest beaches around, is not far. George's most important agricultural
crop is hops – so if you're into beer, you'll enjoy seeing the immensely
high hop crops. Even more fun is the Outeniqua Hop – a marketing
route that joins together some lovely country attractions including hop
farms, strawberry farms, cheese farms and craft outlets.
But – – really – George has one major attraction. Golf, golf, golf and golf.
OK – that's four. And that's less than the number of golf courses in this
golf-mad little city. (It's a city not a town, because it has a cathedral, which
you may like to visit, as it's quite pretty.) But forget the cathedral. George is
about golf.
