Many different kinds of exciting outdoor activities and supervised adventure sports are available from the Sedgefield Adventure Association which is a group of companies that complement each other and work together to organise a multitude of recreational pursuits for locals and visitors.

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

The Pilipili Beach Cabanas 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.

There is a parking area for vehicles at  Pilipili Restaurant, providing people with direct access to Myoli Beach. This is just one of the beautiful accessible beaches attracting so many people to Sedgefield.

From there, one can choose to walk left towards Cola Beach which continues on to Platbank and eventually borders on the Goukamma Nature Reserve and Marine Protected Area if you walk far enough.

You'll find the Swartvlei rivermouth if you walk west. Then you can participate in what the locals call "surging" through the rivermouth  (provided it is open) that is great fun for the whole family!  Ask at  Pilipili as they know all about it! 

Myoli also offers a free four-wheeled beach bicycle to enable a disabled person to enjoy the beach with family or friends.

Activities on offer include beach volleyball, beach golf, rock and surf fishing, snorkelling, water skiing, tube skiing and paragliding. There is also parking further along at Cola beach if the parking lot at Myoli is very congested in season.
