Storms River, South Africa City Travel Information



City Description:

Storms River is a tiny little mountain town that is situated right next to Tsitsikamma National park. There isn't much of anything to do in Storm's river in regards to nightlife or restaurants, but if the outdoors is your thing, then this is the place for you. Also, it is the common place to stop off at if you are interested in doing the World Record Bungee jump at Bloukrans Bridge.

City Highlights:

The number one highlight is by far the World Record Bungee Jump at Bloukrans Bridge. You can ride a horse or go hiking anywhere, but there is only one place in the world where you can do a world record bungee jump.

City Lowlights:

Being a tiny town, the infrastructure is pretty sparse, therefore getting money from ATM's or buying groceries is close to impossible.

Restaurants:

There were a couple of tiny little restaurants in the town center, but nothing very nice. They were more like cafes. The best place I ate it while in Storms River was at my hostel, Dijembe.

The People:

Being such a small town, I didn't meet too many of the locals, but the people I did meet from there were nice and a little bit more on the rugged side.

Sights:

Tsitsikamma National park is the main sight to see. From what I understand, it is a beautiful place with some wonderful sights.

My Thoughts on this City:

Storms River is a good place if you want to go to nature and get away from it all. The people are friendly, and if the weather is good, you'll find that they are plenty of things to do like horseback riding, hiking, bungee jumping, etc.
