Yes, we are BACK!
​​For our 9th year running
​​​
Welcome to The Island Beach Bar - where good vibes, great cocktails, and river views collide.
Tucked away on South Africa’s only private island in Plettenberg Bay, we’ve created the ultimate spot to kick back, sip slow, and let the sunshine do its thing.
​
Our bartenders shake up artisan cocktails using the freshest local ingredients, perfectly paired with a soulful, island-inspired menu featuring our founders’ favorite dishes.
All you have to do is arrive hungry, thirsty, and ready to unwind - we’ll handle the rest.
