COME VISIT US FOR THE DAY

A Full Day in the Water, Two Hours from Cape Town

Bring the whole family and make a day of the best of Montagu in our natural hot spring pools. Children work through the water slide and whatever else is running at the activity centre, from soccer to volleyball to chess, while the grown-ups get a braai going in the picnic areas, book a treatment at the spa, or simply stay in the water. Order a picnic or braai basket ahead, work through the poolside menu at Dassie’s, grab something quick from the cafe, or sit down properly at Cogman’s Restaurant, which has a menu built for adults and children in equal measure.

Book Online Before You Drive

PLAN YOUR DAY

Four Things Worth Arranging In Advance

Order a Picnic Basket

Reserve a Braai

Braai facilities can be reserved for your exclusive use and come with the grid, wood, charcoal and firelighters. No need to bring any of it.

Stock Up at the Cafe

Groceries, snacks and ice cream are on sale at the cafe through the day, so nobody has to leave and come back.

The Wellness Spa takes day visitors as well as overnight guests, 08:00 to 17:00 daily. Booking ahead is essential.

FAQ

Yes. Avalon Springs sells day passes to its natural hot springs in Montagu, booked online in advance through the resort’s activity booking system. Numbers are capped each day, so book before you travel.

From 08:00 every day. Closing is later in summer than in winter, so check the hours on the day visitors page before you plan a late afternoon arrival at Avalon Springs.

Access to the natural hot springs, the water slide, the picnic and braai facilities, the activity centre and kids programme, the information centre, the spa, Cogman’s Restaurant, Dassie’s Poolside Bistro and the cafe. Treatments and meals are charged separately.

Own food and soft drinks are allowed with a surcharge per cooler bag or cooler box. External liquor is not permitted at all; alcohol is served on the property and can be included in a picnic basket ordered ahead.

No. There is no day visitor parking on the premises at all. You may be dropped at the entrance, and vehicles must be parked outside the Montagu Springs entrance nearby. Plan for this before you arrive.

Yes. Braai facilities can be reserved for exclusive use and come with the grid, wood, charcoal and firelighters supplied, so there is nothing to pack. Picnic baskets can also be ordered ahead.

No. A day pass covers the Avalon Springs day visitor area only. Montagu Springs is a separate, privately owned property next door and cannot be reached from inside Avalon Springs.

Yes. Avalon Springs charges a reduced day rate for visitors aged 60 and over, every day of the week. Current rates are shown on the day visitors page.
