Pilipili Beach Cabanas, Beach Bar and RestaurantPilipili Beach Cabanas, Beach Bar and Restaurant

Aptly named Pilipili Beach Cabanas is at the main parking area to Myoli Beach. It puts you right in the middle of the action at Myoli beach from where the Adventure Centre Gurus can set you up to have the time of your life in Sedgefield’s magnificent outdoor environment.

Myoli Beach is just one of the beautiful accessible beaches that attracts so many people to Sedgefield. You can walk all the way to Platbank that borders on the Goukamma Nature Reserve and Marine Protected Area if you walk in an easterly direction.

You'll find the Swartvlei rivermouth if you walk west. Then you can participate in what the locals call "surging" through the rivermouth. Ask at  Pilipili as they know all about it! 

Activities on offer include beach volleyball, beach golf, rock and surf fishing, snorkeling, water skiing, tube skiing and paragliding.
