Affectionately known by locals as "B'bos", Baardskeerdersbos is a tiny Overberg village nestled between Gansbaai and Elim. Translating to “beard shaver's bush,” the name refers to the legend of a local spider said to cut the hair of sleeping residents to line its nest! Lying within a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site, the surrounding natural beauty is an inspiring canvas for the emerging community of artists, creatives, and those in search of an alternative lifestyle.
