Area Information:Very little is known about Arniston's history prior to the appearance of the first European settlers. The Khoisan people lived along these shores as Strandlopers (Beach combers). Very little remains of their existence here except for the occasional 'midden' of shellfish remains and a few paintings and artifacts discovered in the surrounding area. Arniston derives its name from a wreck, namely the British 'Arniston' which sank here in 1815. Only 6 of the 378 passengers on board survived. Arniston is also known as 'Waenhuiskrans'. Literally translated it means ox wagon cave and takes its name from the huge cave, which was big enough for a wagon to circle in.
Property Facilities:Various - Self-Catering Houses and flats to rent in Arniston.
Attractions:Arniston is famous for starry night sky’s as we do not have street lights. The Arniston Beaches have clear rock pools ideal for snorkeling and warm water up to 20 degrees during summer. Hiking along the coast and resting on the memorial benches is a high point. During September whale watching must be added to your list. Arniston is also a well known fishing destination. Watch the local fishermen launch their boats and join in the excitement when they bring home their catch of the day. The Cave, that can only be accessed during low tide, must also be added on your list of things to do.

Arniston Reviews
We enjoyed the wonderful sea, the view the laid back atmosphere, the local people and the wonderful fresh fish that we enjoyed.
The beautiful scenery and clean beaches. Very safe area and not overrun with people. Excellent for fishing, cycling and hiking. The Arniston Cave is a must to visit!
The close proximity to the ocean is amazing.
The beach is stunning. The cave is an impressive sight.
Neatness and quietness of the space.
The staff was e excellent
Friendly staff and great location.
The harbour and beach is within walking distance. Willeen's Restaurant and Mien's Tea Garden was excellent. We were safe and the locals were so friendly and welcoming.
Quiet and unspoilt!
We stayed at N3 seaside Cottage. What a peaceful break away. We often stay in the big seaside cottages. We would really like to recommend they give each cottage a good deep clean and have a look at replacing the stove tops (N3) was badly rusted and completely cracked. The house was in good shape just really needs very good cleaning after each stay. (spider webs on roofs, behind doors etc).(let it have the smell of a cleaned place).
We will for sure be back soon.
Thank you 👍
It was peaceful and quiet
