Fancourt, located on the famous Garden Route in South Africa, has announced the launch of its brand new leisure centre, which will officially open its doors to guests later this month.

This state-of-the-art new facility has been carefully designed to cater for the whole family.

On the bottom floor is the new high-tech gymnasium, studio, changing rooms, sauna and Kidz indoor heated pool.

The Fancourt Kidz Club, trendy Teen Lounge (which will also be used at times as a Mum’s lounge) and cinema will be on the top floor.

There is also a new outdoor swimming pool and Kidz Outdoor area at the centre.

There are lots of opportunities to interact with wildlife on the Garden Route (without the fear of malaria) such as a visit to the monkey rehabilitation Park Monkeyland, the rare opportunity to interact with elephants around the Knysna Elephant Park, to ride Ostriches in Oudtshoorn and watch whales and dolphins surfing the ocean from boat trips. 

There are two fantastic sandy beaches a short 15 minute drive away from Fancourt at Heralds Bay and Victoria Bay, with shuttles available for families who enjoy a little beach time.

Fancourt has previously been recognised by the World Travel Awards for its leading role in African tourism.
