Renting a Ponto do Ouro beach house, must rate as being the perfect step in creating a fabulous holiday for your family. The village and sea itself offers everything in terms of entertainment and things to do for a family.
Ponta is some 600 kilometers from Johannesburg and should you rent a beach house you need to remember that you need to bring the majority of what you need food wise with you, as the local cantina's will only provide the basics. Emanguzi, the last little town on the South African side of the border, however, has a large Spar where you could stock up. You further need to bring your own meat along in a frozen state. All this means that should you rent self catering accommodation you will need to have a trailer to transport your food. It further means that you would need to have a 4x4 to tow with as the last 20 kilometers from the border is a deep and sandy track only navigable by 4x4. One could however be towing up to the border with a car and arrange for a 4x4 to collect you and also return you to your car, which will be guarded at the border.
Ponta du Oura, itself, offers so much for the family wishing for a carefree and laid back holiday. Because of its remoteness the place is not overcrowded but further due to the many activities on offer, people are dispersed all over the place and not crowded together. Apart from swimming in the safe sea and lounging on the pristine beaches there are really so much to do in Ponta. There is safe windsurfing and board surfing for the kids, scuba diving, fishing, boating and jet skiing to be enjoyed in day time and lovely little restaurants and pubs to visit at night time.
