Restaurants
Amanzimtoti Clear Waters Spur SteakhouseA family steak house restaurant as close to the beach as you can get!
Spur steak ranches is a well known franchise brand in South Africa catering very well for families with children. This one overlooks the Amanzimtoti main beach (Inyoni Rocks beach), breakers and ocean, and it gives you a birds eye view of the beach area. Entrance is from the parking area which can be reached from beach road or the beachfront, and it's next to the beach offices.
