Exchange rate 'boosting interest' in South Africa

An expert has reported that the current exchange rate is boosting interest in travel to South Africa.

Research from Travelex.co.uk has found that the strength of the British pound against the rand has led to sales of the South African currency rising by 12.9 per cent - a sure sign that more Brits will be heading to the country.

Other nations are finding that their currency is going further on South African shores but regardless of where you come from there are delights that should appeal to any traveller who is interested in travelling to the Rainbow nation.

Cape Town is just one of many popular tourist destinations to be found there. Such is the geography of the city that you can visit several different beaches in the same day, each with a uniquely different atmosphere.

For instance, beaches located on the Atlantic Coast tend to have very cold water as the water is mostly glacial melt from Antarctica, while the water at False Bay beaches is often warmer by up to 10C (18F).

For those ready to book a trip, and online travel insurance, it is worth noting that winter runs from May to September, so get clicking now!
