Tides River Lodge lies on the banks of the Breede River, near Malgas, in the Cape. A short, scenic two and a half hour trip from Cape Town and only half an hour from Swellendam on the way to the Garden Route.

Tides is an oasis in the dry wheatlands of the Overberg, an “off the beaten track” destination for those who enjoy something different. Tides Lodge is located in a sheltered cove with an island directly in front of the property. Tides is without doubt one of the most unique and pristine locations on the Breede River. Next door to Malgas, Tides Lodge offers something for everyone and the activities available range from relaxing in a deck chair and enjoying the peaceful tranquility of the Breede River to traversing the challenging 4X4 trails of the Overberg.

The Breede River is recognised as one of the best fishing estuaries in South Africa. Tidal action reaches 60km upstream supporting a rich diversity of fish and birdlife.

Fishing can be enjoyed year round in the waters of San Sebastian Bay and the Breede River Estuary. The area offers the opportunity to catch a wide variety of fish. You have the choice of River Fishing , Rock and Surf Fishing and Inshore Game Fishing.

One can expect to catch Spotted Grunter, Cob, Steenbras, Leervis, Shad and Barbel in the river and Kabejou, Cape Salmon (Geelbek), White and Red Stumpnose and Red Roman at sea.
