Xplorio Headquarters

At Xplorio we believe in the power of community and as such we like to shine the light on some of our community members. Here are 5 great bsuinesses to visit on your next trip to Betty's Bay:

Penguinkidz Pre School

At Penguinkidz Pre School it’s all about the kids. The teachers here aim to provide a fun and safe environment for kids to learn and interact with other children. The Pre School aims to provide quality care and education to promote physical, emotional, social and intellectual development for the learners.

John the Potter Gallery

Welcome to a wonderland of creativeness. From outside you can already stand in awe as the walkway and garden is filled with mirror collages, mosaic patterns, wooden sculptures and spiky heads. Inside the gallery lies a world literally made out of clay. Browse and admire the works of John, the owner and creator of various clay creations; from beautiful hand-crafted crockery to ceramics. Stop by any day of the week.

Café El’Ora

Situated in the centre of Betty’s Bay, this homey restaurant invites you for a hearty breakfast or lunch. The Restaurant prides itself in fresh food which is paired with a lovely ocean view. With children and groups welcome, this makes for a great venue for special occasions and family celebrations.

The Trail House

Situated at the foot of the Kogelberg Mountain Range, this is the perfect easy-going accommodation for those who love to be close to nature. Holding true to its name, Rod’s Hiking Trail starts 50m from the house and takes you through the beautiful Harold Porter Botanical Gardens. The house is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, the main beach and sleeps 6 guests in total.

Brindley Pritchard

Visit the gallery along Clarence Drive with a difference. Hosted by the artists with a list of qualifications and exhibitions as big as the impressive canvases he creates, Brindley Pritchard is a truly unique artist guided by staying true to his passion. Focusing mainly on painting people, he depicts everyday life in a new and unusual way. Stop by and see for yourself.
