Getting to Pringle Bay

Travelling by car is by far the easiest way of getting to Pringle Bay. There are other transport alternatives, such as taking a taxi or transfer from Cape Town Airport, however, this can be a costly exercise and you may end up travelling for over 2-3 hours.  We recommend using a car rental service, which will not only be faster, but also give you the freedom to explore the surrounding areas.
