MESSAGE FROM THE MINISTER

South Africa’s Minister of Tourism, The Honourable Marthinus van Schalkwyk WELCOME.   South Africa’s status as a premier global leisure destination is now firmly established. We have the capability and the means, the welcoming culture, and the varied, textured, beautiful destination that the world’s travellers – ever more demanding and discerning – want when they choose a destination. During the last five years, South Africa has outpaced the growth of all competitor locations in the leisure arrivals category. Foreign direct spend in rand terms has grown faster than arrivals, with an 11% per-annum growth rate. South Africa’s tourism industry has also managed to build on the momentum achieved during a record-breaking 2010 by growing a further 3,3% and attracting over 8,3 million international tourists in 2011.   Tourism is poised to play a greater role than ever before, both on the global stage and in the lives of South Africans. However, tourism is about much more than the policies, statistics and objectives that often talked about. It is about people. Being a labour-intensive sector with a supply chain that cascades deep into the national economy and across all communities, tourism is positioned as a priority sector in Government’s planning and policy frameworks. In South Africa, as in the rest of the world, tourism remains one of the fastest-growing economic sectors, with huge potential for future job creation and social inclusion, in particular with regard to women and young people.   Our country as a whole embodies a very distinct fabric of interwoven cultures and the world’s eyes have opened up to the beauty, diversity of experiences, and endless possibilities that South Africa has to offer like never before. The surge of visitors and sustained growth in tourism to South Africa since the World Cup is a testament to this and we continue to invest heavily in creating intrigue for our country’s broad spectrum of lifestyle experiences. We are indeed ‘a world in one country’, from our awe-inspiring environment through to the warmth and friendliness of our people.

LETTER FROM THE SOUTH AFRICAN TOURISM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER Welcome to South Africa — one of the world’s great golfing destinations IN THE international golfing world, South Africa’s reputation is sky-high. The Majors Tournament exploits of the likes of Retief Goosen, Charl Schwartzel, Louis Oosthuizen, Trevor Immelman and the ever-green Ernie Els have ensured South African golf's extremely lofty global reputation is well-deserved and secure.   But while the exploits of our golfers at famous courses such as Augusta, Wentworth and St Andrew­s have given our country’s standing a huge boost, it has also enhanced South Africa’s status as a golfing destination par excellence.   For golfing enthusiasts, South Africa offers the chance to play a round of golf alongside the ocean and watch the whales play in the waves as your golfing buddies tee off or to putt for a birdie in the middle of the pristine South African bush, as wild antelope graze close by or the cry of the fish eagle pierces the big, blue sky. For all golfers, South Africa offers a break from your business schedules at one of our over 400 unforgettable, unique golf courses — many featuring on the world golfing circuit.   This country offers every visitor — and certainly every golf lover — the opportunity to fulfill their dreams. Ours is the ultimate sporting destination, be it playing on our world-renowned golf courses, the thrill of the extreme: bunji-jumping, paragliding, surfing, caving or being challenged by our off-road trails.   But our country offers so much more than sport. It offers the chance to reach for the stars and to feel the universe embrace you under the brilliant clarity of the southern night sky or a chance to treat yourself to our variety of fine dining venues. Hospitality meets you at every turn. From the super luxurious hotels, lodges and resorts to intimate and cultural accommodation establishments, we offer you an infinite choice of overnight options.   Our cosmopolitan cities, country towns and villages will amaze you. The cultural rainbow of our nation brings many lifestyles, traditions, and languages for you to interact with.   Are you interested in safari and wildlife? Yes, take your pick. There are private lodges and reserves, national parks and wilderness regions to suit every pocket.   Our selection and choice of wines suit every palette. There’s a red, white, rosé and sparkling wine to pair with the culinary delights of every description.   Be revitalized at our spas, wellness centres and retreats, that will refresh and restore your mind and body.   We open our doors to you. Share the beauty of our country. Experience the African hospitality — let ‘ubuntu’ and warmth of our people make you feel at home.

The City of Cape Town prides itself on being one of the most caring, inclusive and well run cities in South Africa WE ARE particularly proud of our immense natural beauty — from the shores of False Bay, to the wine lands of the Stellenbosch district, and everything in between.   The FIFA World Cup provided us with a valuable boost to start revamping our public transport service, and already more than 4 million passenger journeys have been reported on our MyCiTi bus network.   These buses already connect the airport and the city centre with the Table View area along our West Coast. Future phases will include connecting routes to our beaches and sea-side play zones. Your oversized luggage, such as surf-boards and golf bags, is more than welcome on board. Eventually, this safe and effective network will cover the entire Cape Peninsula.   Ahead of 2014 — the year in which Cape Town will www.capetown.gov.za Cape Town Tourism +27 (0)21 487 6800 +27 (0)86 132 2223 www.capetown.travel

officially hold the title as World Design Capital — we have embarked on a number of creative design initiatives. One immediate visible result was the relocation of the golf course on the Green Point Common, which now forms part of the Cape Town Stadium precinct. We have also invite­d student­s from the University of Cape Town to assis­t us with ideas on how to finish the unfinished freeway, which you will see in the City Centre.   Cape Town is a vibrant, cosmopolitan city with a creative ability that ranks among the best in the world. The City offers everything the business or leisure traveller might require — from top-class accommodation, to safe and reliable transit. It’s not “all work and no play” either; there is more than enough to entertain you.   We hope you enjoy your stay in the Mother City. We are happy to welcome you to our shores.

ENTERPRISE ILEMBE, KWAZULU-NATAL NORTH COAST

The iLembe Region was named to honour King Shaka’s Zulu Kingdom along KwaZulu-Natal’s North Coast, extending 110 km from Umhlanga Rocks just north of Durba­n, up to Amatikulu River. Tel: +27 (0)32 947 1256 www.enterpriseilembe.co.za

THE iLembe Region with its unique mix of luxury resorts and wide variety of affordable accommodation, has long been recognized as a prime domestic and international holiday destination. Patches of coastal forest give way to rolling green hills of sugar cane, which, in turn, spill into the rich hinterland of the province. Its ever-present sea views and magnifi­cent beaches are what this holiday destination is all about and its warm-all-year-round weather means you can swim, sunbathe, surf and fish from early spring right through to winter’s end.   The North Coast boasts a rich cultural heritage with strong Eastern, African, European and French Mauritian influences, a unique cultural mix, which provides fascinating insights into the history of this part of the world. INVESTMENT, EMPLOYMENT AND PRODUCTION Glittering natural assets abound. Local and global investors have invested some R2 billion in tourism projects in the past two years. Developers have recognized the value of its unspoilt natural environment and have adopted an approach that puts residents and guests directly in touch with the region’s natural beauty. VINEYARDS The iLembe Vineyards Project is an agro processing busi-

ness with an Agri Tourism component. It takes three years for vineyards to be planted before they can be harvested. The ultimate goal of the project is to capitalize on the catalytic effect of a vineyard, and the ability to create econo­mically viable projects and industries supporting and surrounding the vineyards.   The objective of the project is to plant and harvest vines with the intention of producing some or all of the following i.e. wine, brandy, juice and the production of table grapes. Villard Blanc has been identified as a grape cultivar that is ideal for the coastline of KwaZulu-Natal as it is resistant to humidity.

NORTH WEST: QUICK FACTS

WESTERN CAPE: QUICK FACTS

The vast and arid Northern Cape is by far the largest province, slightly bigger than Germany and taking up nearly a third of South Africa’s land area. Yet it has the country’s smallest population, around 1-million people, and an extremely roomy population density of three people per square kilometre. The province lies to the south of its most important asset, the mighty Orange River.

North West lies in the north of South Africa on the Botswana border, fringed by the Kalahari desert in the west, Gauteng province to the east, and the Free State to the south. It is known as the Platinum Province for the wealth of the metal it has underground.

If three pyramids are the symbol of Africa’s far north, then a flat-topped mountain is the symbol of its far south. Cape Town nestles in the curve of Table Mountain at the start of the hook-shaped Cape Peninsula, which ends in the jagged cliffs of Cape Point. The Western Cape lies on southern tip of Africa, however the most-southern point is in fact at Cape Agulhas, some 200km east of Cape Town.

Gauteng, in Sesotho means “place of gold”, with only 1.4% of South Africa’s land area, the tiny province of Gauteng punches way above its weight, contributing 33% to the national economy and a phenomenal 10% to the GDP of the entire African continent.

The Eastern Cape, lying on the southeastern South African coast, is a region of great natural beauty, particularly the rugged cliffs, rough seas and dense green bush of the stretch known as the Wild Coast.

The Free State lies in the heart of South Africa, with the Kingdom of Lesotho nestling in the hollow of its bean-like shape.

the SUNSHINE TOUR

The Sunshine Tour is one of six founding professional golf tours that makes up the International Federation of PGA Tours. BASED IN South Africa, with several tournaments in neighbouring African states, the Sunshine Tour stages professional tournaments throughout the year. It’s flagship events include the venerable SA Open Championship, the Telkom PGA Championship and SA Masters, while it now has six tournaments that are co-sanctioned with the PGA European Tour.   The Sunshine Tour has been the starting point for many professionals who have gone on to dominate the world professional golf and, since World War II, only the USA has produced more Major victories than South Africa. Lead by such icons of the game as Gary Player, Ernie Els and Retief Goosen, the Sunshine Tour continues to produce world-beating professionals with the likes of Charl Schwartzel, Louis Oosthuizen and Branden Grace the latest to break through on the world stage.   Divided into a summer and winter "swing", the Sunshine Tour stages tournaments yearround, with the bigger prize-money events taking place in the summer months from October through March. During the winter months, smaller three-round events with an emphasis on Pro-Am participation take place, with many smaller centres around South Africa being visited. From 2012, these three-round events have been awarded Official World Ranking points, giving South African “stay-at-home” professionals opportunities to improve their world standing and contributing towards being able to qualify for Majors and World Golf Championship events.   From late 2013 for a period of at least five years, the Sunshine Tour will host the Tourna­ ment of Hope, which will involve the top 50 players on the Official World Golf Ranking as well as the top finishers on the Orders of Merit from member Tours of the International Federation of PGA Tours. This limited-field event will coincide with World Aids Day and will have as its focus the highlighting of HIV/Aids and poverty within Africa. The venue of the Tournament of Hope is still to be decided.   For visitors to South Africa, professional golf tournaments are easily accessed and boast a standard of play every bit as good as any of the major Tours around the world.   Visit www.sunshinetour.com for a full year-round schedule.

THIS Jack Nicklaus signature golf course joins an elite group of 300 courses worldwide that carries the Nicklaus name. It is the first 27-hole signature course in Gauten­g designed with characteristics of a stadiu­m course, constructed in accordance with USGA specification­s.   Serengeti comprises an 18-hole course named Masai Mara, which has a rugged grass­­land and dune-scape look and feel and a 9-hole course named Whistl­ing Thorn which features classic design elements. The Serengeti Golf Club is the first course in Gauteng to use cool season grasses mean­ing that the course remains lush green throughout the year. A variety of tee options combined with careful consideration to the daily set-up can provide the sternest of challenges for the most skilled players, yet the ideal environment for new golfers to learn the game. There are a number of unique features, such as the challenging par 5, 8th hole with its island green.   Harnessing the two golf courses is a multi-faceted club­ house of over 6500 m². This venue is not only aesthetical­

ly appealing, but incorporates a variety of facilities: a golf academy and pro shop; several lounges and bars; two restaurants and banquet­­ing facilities.   The Serengeti Golf & Wildlife Estate was selected as the preferred host to stage this premier event on the Sunshine Tour, for the 101st SA Open in 2011 and again for the 102nd SA Open in 2012. With its origins datin­g back to 1893, the South African Open Championship embodies the spirit of competitive golf in South Afric­a. The country’s national Open is wide­ly acknow­ ledged as one of the oldest Open Championships in golf.   From its beginnings as a match play event, the country’s flagship event evolved into a stroke play tournament in 1903, with a sizeable number of golfers competing for the honour of being crowned champion. These days the SA Open Championship occupies an important place on the international golf calendar and is a prominent fixture on both the Sunshine and European Tours, fielding 156 professionals and amateurs, with a €1 million prize fund.

32 YEARS OF MAKING THINGS HAPPEN FOR SOUTH AFRICAN GOLF

THE NEDBANK GOLF CHALLENGE, or South Africa’s Major, has a long and illustrious history of providing a stage for the world’s best golfers to enthral the South African golf loving public. The tournament dates back to 1981 when the Sun City challenge was staged at the Gary Player designed course and Nedbank has been involved since inception, sponsoring the 14th hole.

Over three decades the tournament has grown in stature, and what began as an ‘exhibition’ of golf, soon grew into a fully-fledged tournament complete with official world ranking points. The tournament has unquestionably become the greatest showcase of golf on the African continent. Nedbank’s investment and sponsorship grew steadily culminating in the bank taking on the title sponsorship in 1996.   In 1987 the event was played on a “winner takes all” basis. The prize fund of $1 Million led to the event being named the Million Dollar Golf Challenge. This approach was intended to attract the world’s top golfers to compete in South Africa during the apartheid era. In 1988 the winner’s prize was again $1 million, but additional prizes were introduced.   From 2000 to 2002 the first prize was increased to $2 million, but the following year the winner’s share of the total prize fund was reduced to around 30% of the total prize money. In 2006 the winner received $1.2 million out of a total purse of $4.385 million.   The live television broadcast goes out to approximately 200 countries, raising Nedbank’s profile while at the same time marketing South Africa as a tourist destination and drawing attention to Sun City.   Over a number of years the profile of the NGC has created a platform for other sponsors to leverage off and created thousands of employment opportu-

Mike Brown Nedbank CEO, Lee Westwood 2010-2011 NGC Winner and Garth Collins, Interim Chief Executive Officer Sun International


nities for the community living in and around the Sun City resort.   Additional community building opportunities that have arisen as an indirect benefit of the NGC are: ❏ The annual Sports Trust Challenge is presented by Nedbank and Sun International, founding trustees of The Sports Trust, the event is held the day after the NGC and raises over R1 millio­n for sport development. Nedbank and the bank’s Sport Affinity clients have over the last ten years helped raise over R15 million for worthy initiatives. ❏ As far back as 2005 Sun International and Nedbank joined forces to assist adopted families living in poverty. To date, Sun City has built nine houses for adopted families and with Nedbank’s assistance a further five houses were built.   Nedbank remains committed to raising the profile of golf domestically, while at the same time giving deserving underprivileged golfers the opportunity to make things happen. This includes a significant investment in the Nedbank SA Disabled Golf Open. Nedbank is the official banking partner to the Sunshine Tour; and the Nedbank Affinity Cup Pro-Am, a South African PGA Tour event.

Daniel Slabbert 2011 Nedbank SA Disabled Golf Open Champion

As sponsors we appreciate the fact that the success of the event depends on the ongoing support of our valued Nedbank clients and the general public. When you’ve been involved in a sponsorship for 32 years, and your brand promise is to Make Things Happen, the pressure to deliver is certainly on and we relish the challenge to make the 2012 Nedbank Golf Challenge the best ever.

We welcome you to take a walk on the Wild side of SANParks, SA’s natural heritage. NATIONAL PARKS has become the pride and joy of all South Africans and of the world, managing a system of parks representing the indigenous fauna, flora, landscapes and associated cultural heritage of the country.   SANParks is the body responsible for managing South Africa’s national parks. Formed in 1926, today manages 20 parks, consisting of 3 700 000 ha (37 000 km²), about 3% of the total area of South Africa.   The best known park is Kruger National Park, the oldest (proclaimed in 1898) – and the largest – The Kruger Park and Table Mountain National Park are two of South Africa’s most visited tourist attractions (20 July 2011 Wikipedia).   Most of the national parks have over-night facilities, with unrivalled variety of accommo­ dation in arid, coastal, mountain and bushveld habitats. We offer visitors an unparalleled diversity of opportunities including adventure tourism, game viewing, bush walks, canoeing, cultural and historic experiences throughout South Africa. Conference facilities are offered in many of the parks.   From the beginnings: 1910 the game reserves and general wildlife preservation was placed under the Transvaal Administration. In 1912 Stevenson-Hamilton submitted the proposal to Sir Patrick Duncan for reserves between the Sabie and Olifants rivers, and between the Letaba and Shingwedzi rivers, to become a national park. On promulgation, 31 May 1926, President Kruger’s conservation ideal was realised, when the first board of South African National Parks was appointed.   In 1955 the kudu was first used in the Park’s logo. Today the kudu is represented in all parks logos within the SANParks framework, and is supported by the government through the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism.   SANParks is the leading conservation authority in all national parks around this country.   The focus in the first decade of democracy has been to make national parks more access­ ible to tourists; ensure conservation; and, to contribute to social and economic development in rural areas.

A Taste of Fine Vine

The South Africa wine industry is proud of our position to maintaining our position as a world leader in eco-sustainability. THE BIODIVERSITY AND WINE INITIATIVE (BWI), a partnership between wine producers and the wine sector seeks to protect the highly threatened Cape Floral Kingdom from further loss. Set aside for conservation are some 132 000 ha, significantly more than the 101 000 ha comprising our national vineyard.   More recently our sustainability focus extends to include social sustainability. We have created the framework for the wine world’s first ethical seal. This aims to fast-track the implementation of fair labour practices on our wine farms and in the cellars.   Our wines are showing ever-increasing finesse and complexity. Many estates attract extremely positive critical attention to advance our standing as a national producer of excellence across the pricing continuum. We have also broadened the scope of our offerings to accommodate the demand for greater flavour sophistication at the entry level, with lower-alcohol content, as well as increasing the range of sparkling wine products.   As current chairman of the Cape Winemakers Guild, I truly encompass our philosophy of constantly trying to raise the standard of the South African Wine Industry. As a dynamic team, we strive to ensure our wines stand out amongst the best in the world. Our main goal is to extract the full potential from our unique South African terroir and to set new world-class benchmarks for South African and indeed the world’s wine production standard­s.   It gives me great pleasure to be involved in the ever-growing and exceptional South African Wine Industry. I believe that through continuously striving for perfection and maintaining our philosophy of being a world-class contender, we are fast becoming one of the great wine and tourist destinations in the world.

GROOT CONSTANTIA is one of the Cape’s oldest and most famous wine farms dating back to 1685, producing wine continuously since its inception. The Groot Constantia trademark is one of the oldest surviving trademarks in the world today serving as a testimony of continuous quality wine production over centuries. Therefore, wines and heritage remain at the heart of the Constantia Valley.   The land was granted to Simon van der Stel, 891 morge­n (about 763 hectares), situated behind Table Mountain, which he named “Constantia”. The farm had several owners of which two were female. The Cloete family put Groot Constantia on the map from 1778 to 1885. Constantia wine was coveted across the globe and those who were fortunate enough to taste it soon refused to settle for anything less. Members of the British Royal House, Napoleon Bonaparte, King Louis Philippe of France, Frederick (The Great) of Prussia, the Lord Seventeen of the VOC, governors, admirals, captains, and many other dignitaries coveted the Constantia label.   Considering that they been making wine for over 325

years from the very first vines planted in the Cape – in what can only be described as the perfect natural conditions and under the watchful eye of the winemakers – it becomes clear why our wines have become legendary and unique. The estate today, covers 170 hectares, of which 96 hectares is under vines. Over the last six years Groot Constantia has won 34 gold medals for a variety of its wines.   Groot Constantia stands as a pinion of excellence for the South African wine industry and is an ideal example for the preservation of the cultural and historical heritage of the country. The farm has a wonderful array of things to do and see: visit the Manor House and Cloete Cellar dating back to 1791. Daily cellar tours and wine tasting as well as guided vineyard tours, two outstanding restaurants (Simon’s and Jonkershuis), as well as an art gallery displaying the paintings of local artists. As one of Cape Town’s Big 6 tourist attractions, with over 300 000 estate visitors annually, they are part of the Hop-on-hop-off City Sightseeing bus route.

HAUTE CABRIÈRE is a wine farm steeped in history and local lore. Originally granted to a French Huguenot farmer, Pierre Jourdan, on the 22 December 1694, it has been part of the Franschhoek Wine Valley fabric for over 300 years. Being a pioneer is intrinsic to Haute Cabrière and throughout its development and evolution it has always remained true to this heritage.   In 1982, with a pioneering legacy in mind, the vine­ yards were replanted in the tradition of the Champagne. The wines and Cap Classiques that Haute Cabrière now creates are the result of the this pivotal decision made over 28 years ago: To focus only on the classic Chardonnay and Pinot Noir cultivars. Brave unconventional decisions made then ensure that today Achim von Arnim, the famed proprietor and the Haute Cabrière team, continue to add to the farm’s spirit, by specialising in an enticing

range of champenoise – named after the original Haute Cabrière trailblazer and founder, Pierre Jourdan.   Comprised of two farms, situated on opposite ends of the breathtaking Franschhoek Wine Valley, Haute Cabrière is something extraordinary. A rich history, a whim­sical setting, a seductive approach to wine and a magnetic proprietor ensure that Haute Cabrière is a decadent affair for any visitor.   Its celebrated restaurant, Haute Cabrière, enhances the experience. Here, dishes are expertly paired with each wine and méthode champenoise, showing off the ultimate marriage between food and wine. Then there’s the exclusive extravagance of theatrical wine tours and tasting sessions where guests are treated to, among other things, the famous French Cavalry Sabrage show orchestrated by the charming Achim and Takuan von Arnim.

MESSAGE from the South AfricaN SPA ASSOCIATION The only constant is change …. — Isaac Asimov ALTHOUGH THE core definition of spas, according to ISPA is the same: spas are places devoted to overall well-being through a variety of professional services that encourage the renewal of mind, body and spirit. We see tremendous change and diversity in the spa industry each year, allowing it to be one of the most dynamic and growing sectors of the leisure industry.   Spa trends, as identified by Spa Finder each year, show the global movement in the spa industry, allowing spas to address the changes, and spa-goers the opportunity of new spa experiences. One key identifiable trend is spas have been trying to move away from the gene­ ric “could be anywhere”. Demonstrating uniqueness and authenticity, through immersion in signature treatments, food, design and experiences indigenous to the spa’s unique place and culture.   However, independent of the type of spa, consumer confidence is paramount. One of the key function of the South African Spa Association is to create consumer confidence in the spa industry, through accreditation of establishments, according international spa standards, recognizing spa therapist qualifications, spa research and encouraging further education and upliftment in the industry.   Why are these requirements important to the consumer? Spa experiences are an important component in a person’s wellness regimes, as today’s lifestyle, stress levels and endless performance requirements are undermining to one health. It is therefore important that the spa experience is of a high quality and result focused, ensuring the client’s expectation are not only met, but also exceeded.   Additionally the South African Spa Association provides a platform for consumers to voice complaints and complements. Should an official complaint be logged with the South Afri­ can Spa Association, a South African Spa Association Consultant will visit/liase with the spa directly, to ascertain the nature of the complaint and determine the subsequent corrective steps, so ensuring the spa visitor is always protected, when visiting a member spa.   The SA Spa Association provides the consumer with peace of mind when visiting a spa that bears the South African Spa Association logo. A full list of member spas is available on the SA Spa Association Website: www.saspaassociation.co.za   So, take a moment to rediscover spas, as we reconnect and redefine ourselves, embracing each step of our spa journey.
