Here you will discover a very moderate climate, unspoilt beaches stretching for miles, succulent West Coast Lobster, exquisite fish dishes like Snoek, Galjoen, Harders, Cape Bream and lots more.

Although primarily a fishing town it has become one of the major tourist attractions on the West Coast due to the moderate all year climate.

The activities available range from 4x4 adventures through tanning on the beaches, fishing and crayfish diving in season, to savouring the enormous variety of bird life and Namaqualand Flowers in season.

The town also has a rich cultural history as can be experienced at the Sandveld Museum and nearby local farms such as Wadrift. Lamberts Bay is also the home of the world famous Bird Island

Eat Crayfish, Lobster, Snoek and numerous other seafood sorts at one of the many fish or a la carte restuarants. Tradtitional Sanveld food is also available. A vacation at Lamberts Bay is also not complete without a dinner at one of the famous open air restaurants.

Lamberts Bay being so centrally located on the West Coast is also the ideal accommodation base when visiting the surrounding towns such as Elands Bay, Doring Bay, Strandfontein and Clanwilliam.

Do not forget that these areas are the heart of Namaqua Daisy country and in season these pretty flowers turn the landscape into a colourful and magical paradise as can only be envisaged in a fairy tale.
