Visiting the SANParks Knysna Seahorse sanctuary was one of the most unexpectedly moving experiences of my trip. These tiny, delicate creatures—unique to the Knysna estuary—are absolutely mesmerizing. Watching them drift and curl through the water felt like witnessing a living treasure, something truly rare and precious. What makes this place even more special is the conservation effort behind it. The team is doing incredible work to protect these endangered seahorses, and every visitor helps support that mission. It’s not just a beautiful encounter with nature—it’s a chance to be part of something meaningful. If you're anywhere near Knysna, don’t miss this. It’s a quiet, magical moment that stays with you long after you leave.

Small and fantastic aquarium where you can see seahorses. Well worth a visit. We spend 30 minutes there looking at the different seahorses. This is inside the SANParks office where you can buy fishing licenses. Well worth it if you are close by. Great to bring kids and teach them about seahorses. Highly recommended.

Very educational and a must visit when in Knysna. You get to see the Knysna Seahorse in a small aquarium. These seahorses are very rare so it's great to get a chance to see them. Locating the building is relatively easy if you follow the seahorses tracks on the road which leads to the SANParks building.

It is unfortunate that the organization of the Christmas event at Sanparks on Thesan Island was below expectations. For instance, the speakers were not placed correctly, and that the feedback was chaotic.

However, the stand-in singer should not be blamed for the poor planning of the event. It appears that the organizers sent out emails and text messages blaming the singer, but it is clear that the responsibility for the lack of organization lies with the planners of the event. It is unfair to place the blame on the singer, who was only filling in for the main singer who was...

We were so lucky to have bumped into Jene', a field ranger who is beyond passionate about the survival of these incredibly beautiful, unusual, delicate creatures. We learnt so much from her. Please visit SanParks on Thesen. You'll be touched beyond words, seeing the seahorses up close and you will want to do all you can to preserve these...
