Morukuru Beach Lodge is a luxury 5-suite boutique style eco-lodge in the 36,000 ha De Hoop Nature Reserve, situated approximately 1 km from the exclusive-use Morukuru Ocean House, along the same pristine coastline. Morukuru Beach Lodge consist of 1 Honeymoon Suite and 4 Ocean View Suites, which can be booked individually, making it a great stopover location for couples or smaller families travelling along the Garden Route.
From the lodge it is just a short walk down to the beach and during whale season (July-October) this is arguable the best location for land based whalewatching in Africa. Other activities on offer include mountain-biking, fynbos walks, tidal walks, snorkeling and swimming in protected rockpools, sand-boarding and nature drives. Morukuru Beach Lodge is off grid completely, with electricity being generated entirely by solar panels, however, for the odd longer cloudy periods a backup generator is available.
