South African Beach Resorts

There is no continent on the planet that has the diversity of people, places and things that Africa has to offer. All the major European countries took a piece of the continent and influences from the colonial overseers is apparent and in some instances prevailing. The British, Germans and Portuguese made their marks in east Africa; on the west coast were the Spanish and the French and the jewel that makes up the southern regions were decidedly and remain the realm of the Dutch.
The country of Africa is a literal time machine and those on holiday to this diverse land can be dining in one of the five star restaurants in Cape Town in the evening, and the following day can behold a landscape unchanged for a millennium. The primal part of South Africa is complete with the greatest concentration of wildlife on earth and the tourists may participate in tribal ceremonies that are little changed from the days of the first explorers. The winds of change took Africa out of the Dark Continent and transformed it into a major holiday destination with cheap flights to Africa from every major city in Europe.
