What's the BEST Place to Live on South Africa's GARDEN ROUTE?

#GardenRoute #SouthAfrica
Knysna or Sedgefield – which town on South Africa’s Garden Route is the better choice for digital nomads and expats? We spent 4 weeks testing both locations: 14 days in Knysna, 14 days in Sedgefield. From wingfoiling and water sports to infrastructure, safety, and quality of life – we’re sharing the unfiltered truth about living and working in South Africa’s most famous coastal region.
What we tested:
✓ Best neighborhoods (Leisure Island, Thesen Island, The Island)
✓ Wingfoiling, surfing, kiting – where are the best spots?
✓ Restaurants, gyms, yoga & Pilates studios
✓ Wild Oats Farmers Market in Sedgefield – an insider tip!
✓ Safety and infrastructure quality
✓ Daily life as a digital nomad: shopping, working, socializing

Our honest verdict: Knysna scores with more restaurants and entertainment options but struggles with traffic congestion and infrastructure challenges. Sedgefield surprises with a relaxed island lifestyle, direct access to nature and sports, and a warm community vibe.
