Overstrand Municipality’s Tourism Department is currently conducting two business surveys to better understand the local tourism economy and how it impacts businesses across the Overstrand, and to inform the Tourism Strategy.

We invite both businesses operating in the tourism and hospitality industry, as well as those outside the sector, to take part.

The surveys look at how tourism affects the local economy, infrastructure, labour market and cost of doing business. The information will be used to support more informed planning and decision-making for the Tourism Strategy.

Tourism sector: accommodation providers, restaurants and activity operators etc: https://maxi.net.za/4zyXj

Non-tourism businesses: legal, medical and construction services etc: https://maxi.net.za/QFUyF

Both surveys are also available on the municipal website: https://www.overstrand.gov.za/surveys-2026/

The respective tourism offices in Hermanus, Gansbaai, Stanford and Kleinmond have also shared the links via email to their respective databases.

If your business operates in more than one town, please complete a separate survey for each area.

Your feedback is important to ensure that tourism in the Overstrand is managed in a way that benefits all sectors of the local economy.

Businesses have until 28 April 2026 to complete the surveys.
