Dolphins leap alongside surfers at pristine beaches where locals recommend Thompson's Bay for the best swimming spots. Explore the vibrant Lifestyle Centre's restaurants and shops, then take a short drive to Sugar Rush Park for zipline adventures and mountain biking trails.

Just a tiny walk from Zimbali lodge is this incredible beach with beautiful views of the ocean for as far as the eye can see. I hope to go back one day soon!
