The 3.5-hectare garden, modelled on the famous Company’s Garden in Cape Town, is probably the farm’s main attraction, providing the central backdrop to everything that happens on the farm. The Garden of Diversity pays tribute to the gardening traditions of the Cape; for centuries the halfway station between Europe and Asia, where ships would replenish with water, vegetables and fruit. There are over three kilometres of paths through the garden, which provide hours of walking pleasure, or join the daily guided garden tour led by one of the gardeners.

Lifeguards are on duty during the Blue Flag season (December to March). There is limited parking close to the beach but a short walk away there is timed parking available at the harbour.

GOOD, SAFE FUN FOR ALL
The space comprises manicured, leafy grounds and extremely well-maintained facilities (waterslides, jungle gyms, a zip slide, Putt-Putt and cafe) and is supported by the smiling staff members, who are all trained in first aid, plus a full-time lifeguard. No alcohol, glass bottles or braais are allowed.
The great thing about Waterworld Strand is that it appeals to a range of ages. On a typical day, you might see under-6s (and their parents) buzzing around in a special fenced-off area under the shade of milkwood trees, while older kids queue eagerly for the various slides, of which there are five.
A few teens will likely be playing on the (very impressive) rope ladder obstacle course, while next door hand-holding 20-something couple might be trying their hand at putt-putt. Some parents will be seated in the cafe area sipping coffees and nibbling on pizza, while others join in all the sliding and swimming fun.
