How to watch Miss South Africa’s seven-part series, 'The Mandate'

SEO company seobacklinks.com has released a ranking of South Africa's top 10 best-rated beaches based on an analysis of 162,655 Google reviews. The top-rated beach, Dias Beach at Cape Point, earned a top score of 4.87 stars from 333 reviews. Robberg 5 Beach in Plettenberg Bay and Struisbaai Main Beach in Struisbaai share second place with an average rating of 4.75 stars each.

Keurbooms Beach in Keurboomstrand, Coney Glen Beach in Knysna, Sardinia Bay Beach in Gqeberha, Llandudno Beach in Cape Town, Bakoven Beach in Cape Town, Pringle Bay Beach in Pringle Bay, and The Point in Jeffreys Bay round out the top 10. The analysis, conducted on October 5, 2026, only included beaches with at least 200 reviews, excluding resorts, hotels, private beaches, tidal pools, inland swimming spots, and duplicate listings.

The ranking is based on exact average ratings, not the rounded scores displayed on Google. According to SEO company founder Oliver Weston, the standout features of the top-rated beaches include clean sand, calm water, and ample space. Weston noted that while lower-rated beaches still have fans, complaints about them often revolve around issues like litter, damaged facilities, and poor maintenance.
