Clanwilliam is the springboard for the flower festival, the annual spring fantasia of colourful flowers up the West Coast, which sparks the imaginations of visitors from near and far. Once visited, this beautiful region finds a spot in their hearts, prompting many return visits. There is so much to see and do and explore, that a long visit is not enough to satisfy the quest for the beauty and wild freedom of the area.
