Best Beaches In Johannesburg Near Me

4worldlovers:
The Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve is conveniently situated. It is only 10 km from the center of Johannesburg, 5 km from Soweto and 25km from Sandton.


Furthermore, it is the largest proclaimed nature reserve in the Johannesburg Metropolitan area (over 700 ha. in extent). The reserve boasts a surprising diversity of interests. Some of which are larger game such as zebra, red hartebeest, and black wildebeest. There are also items of botanical, geological, archaeological, historical and cultural interest. Red data listed and other protected species are also to be found.


Another interesting face, the Reserve is rated by many as a birding hotspot where approximately 230 bird species have been identified.

For the outdoor enthusiast, a visit to the Reserve is not to be missed. First time visitors are surprised at this beautiful natural asset so close to the hubbub of the city. It is very aptly referred to as Johannesburg’s Jewel of the South.

The Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve is listed by GDARD (Gauteng Department of Agriculture and Rural Development) in the Gauteng C-plan Database as a critical Bio-diversity area.

We had our year end function at the Venue. Great service and so well organized. Attention to detail is one of their strong Points. Great Job on making the MTN CeX celebrations an incredible one. Colin and Saskia ... Five stars do not justify. Food was amazing. Clean environment with enough parking and well priced.

Great fun place for team building exercises. Would advice companies to make a booking at this place. The feel of beach sand and cool air mixed cocktails is superb. They is a bar for refreshments as well as braai spots and a catering staff. Everyone is quite friendly including the beach volleyball instructor. So go get your game on. Remember to bring a towel and soup to wash up after you done. Showers are there as well.

This place is great for family outings or corporate team building events etc. We were invited by a customer to play in their 5 a side beach soccer day challenge - great venue, awesome staff and it also didn't hurt to have a few ice cold beers after the game. Quite a fun place.

4worldlovers: Nothing beats a sunny South African summer’s day, except spending it outdoors in Waterfall City. Go for a run, ride your bike, play footy with your mates or practise your golf swing. Just relax and enjoy the wide open spaces and fresh Waterfall City air.

A choreographed musical fountain, illuminated at night with 64 coloured lights, welcomes you to the 1,2 hectare Waterfall City Park. Picnic under shade trees, enjoy your lunch break on the park benches, or attend one of the many events hosted in the park. You can even book the park for your own event.

Calling all sporty early risers. If you like the idea of getting up early on a Saturday morning for an easy 5km walk, jog or run, then Waterfall parkrun should be right up your alley. Parkrun is a free, weekly community event that has become popular the world over. The Waterfall parkrun takes place every Saturday morning at 08:00, at Waterfall City Park next to Mall of Africa. See you there!

Work on your swing, or practise pitching or putting. Whatever your pleasure, the biggest golf practice facility in the southern hemisphere is waiting for you in Waterfall City. With a mashie course designed by Gary Player, 12 different practice areas and 190 hitting bays, it even features a Gary Player Golf Experience teaching academy. If golf is your game, this is where you need to be. And even if it isn’t, the fitness centre, Nike retail outlet, spa, kiddies play area, family restaurant and conference facilities make for a great day out. Go on, take a swing.

Selfies turn out so much better when you have something awesome in the background and Mall of Africa has a couple of great selfie spots. Besides the amazing architecture of the mall itself, you shouldn’t miss the impressive PwC Tower — the only twisted tower in Africa, which you can use as a breathtaking backdrop from the Town Square. But the mall’s most Insta-worthy spot must be the incredible twin Africa sculptures in the courtyard outside Tasha’s. Called “There is no time like the present”, this art installation features two 5,5m high sculptures, which represent two faces of the African continent — one rooted in tradition, and one rooted in the modern world, reflecting the wealth of opportunity and potential that lies within us. Meaningful and a brilliant selfie setting!

Another hot Waterfall City selfie spot must be the Novartis staircase by Chris Valentine, located on Magwa Crescent. The vibrant staircase is bound to stop you dead in your tracks and is the perfect backdrop for your impromptu photoshoot, while you wait on the Gautrain bus.

Good news 4×4 adventurers! Now you can put your off-road driving skills to the test without leaving the city. The 4 600m2 BMW xDrive Park next to Waterfall City Park features 1,3 kilometres of off-road track, designed to showcase the BMW xDrive system within all BMW X models. There are 12 off-road modules, where you can put a BMW X vehicle to the test. Don’t own one? No problem — simply book a driving course to experience the thrill of driving across rocks, logs, water, soft sand and more. It’s an adventure for the whole family and just the beginning of your experience with BMW.
