Discover the Namaqua West Coast Wine Route

The Namaqua West Coast Wine Route takes you north along the Olifants River, through towns such as Vredendal, Lutzville and Citrusdal. Here, irrigated vineyards form green ribbons against dry, open countryside.

Warm days and steady sea breezes produce a broad range of wines. In particular, the area is known for honest, easy-drinking styles and excellent value. It is also the gateway to Namaqualand’s famous spring flowers.

Why visit

  • Generous, great-value wines straight from the cellar door
  • A gateway to the Namaqualand spring flower season
  • West Coast seafood, rooibos and citrus country nearby
  • Wide open spaces and relaxed small-town character
