On approaching Knysna, after the turn off to Brenton-on-Sea, you will cross a bridge over the lagoon (referred to as the white bridge). Travel approx. 6 kms, passing through 2 sets of traffic lights, i.e. intersections of N2 and Welbedacht Road and Ou Kaapse Weg (Old Cape Road) respectively.
After the N2/Ou Kaapse Weg (Old Cape Road) main intersection, take second turning left into Albatross Street
