KNYSNA NEWS - Whereas the Garden Route may seem to show off all its glory only on a sunny day, it doesn't mean you have to be glued indoors on a rainy day. 

Here's a list of things you can do when the heavens open up:

• Visit Knysna's timber furniture stores and experience the town's heritage.
• Spend the day bass-fishing at Groenvlei – the only freshwater lake on the Garden Route.
• Have yourself pampered at one our many health and wellness spas.
• Rent or buy a Dalene Matthee novel (available at Knysna Information offices).
• Browse the various shopping malls.
• Have lunch or dinner at one of your favourite restaurants that have reopened post-Covid.
• Visit the great art galleries of Knysna.
• Visit the Millwood House museum in Queen Street to see the Knysna of yore.
