The only Beachfront restaurant in Knysna.

Butterfly Blu is perched on a dune top with beautiful panoramic sea views making it one of the most idyllic restaurants in Knysna with beautiful food, an outdoor/indoor deck, lounge areas, cocktail bar, and a contemporary interior. Directly below the restaurant is beautiful stretch of white sandy beach and rolling dunes covered with lush fynbos for which this part of the world is so famous. The setting is perfect to enjoy a rosy sunset after a stroll on the beach.

    The starters were excellent but the caesar salad was very disappointing. Our waitress was very good and sorted out the problem. No interaction with the manager when we complained about the caesar salad which was disappointing. We frequent the restaurant quite often and will continue to do so as we have always enjoyed the food there.

    This was our first time at Butterfly Blu, and it honestly didn’t disappoint. A friend made the booking for us, and I’m so glad she did. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed. The food was absolutely delicious, the service was friendly and attentive, and the manager really stood out with professional, approachable, and clearly respectful to both guests and his staff. There wasn’t much of a view that day, but the fireplaces added such a warm and cozy touch that it more than made up for it. Overall, a fantastic experience. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be back!
