There are really plenty of these including:

Further away:

• Garden Route (about 500km away - takes about a day to get there, but well worth it if you have the time)
• Hermanus Area. About 150km away. I recommend driving via Betty's Bay to Hermanus - as it's a nicer route.
  

I'll be expanding this list and including photos if I get a chance, and will also include information, such as:
