The N2 is the main coastal highway of South Africa which runs from Ermelo in Mpumalanga, a province of extraordinary beauty, down the south coast of Kwa-Zulu Natal with its kaleidoscope of wonders and the Eastern Cape which boasts remarkable natural diversity before terminating in one of the most beautiful cities of the world, Cape Town in the Western Cape.
Our beaches are more than just a haven for sun-worshippers and surfers, there is so much to see and do along our coastline.
