The Lookout Deck sits two stories higher than the open Indian Ocean and is considered a destination for locals and visitors. Sitting directly on the Keurbooms Lagoon
and Lookout Beach, The Lookout Deck offers unobstructed ocean views, gentle breezes, and the glamorous light of Pletts famous sunsets to add a hint of tropical colour to your cocktail.
A place where neighbours, friends, family and even strangers come together for a memorable Plett experience. After all, this is what you came to Plett for.
We do not take bookings on the Deck and work on a first come first serve basis!
Joining The Deck is its “big sister” Equinox flame & flavour. Literally sea-side, Equinox sits on the Lookout beach and offers holiday makers and residents a classy and casual choice, while celebrating the best of what Plett has to offer – extraordinary seascapes, blue flag beaches, great food and good company. Equinox – new, different and fresh!

    Always enjoy the magnificent location and food. I think the guys doing sand graffiti could be assisted more as do add value to the experience. Otherwise always great service and value.

    The complete package. Lovely food and drinks. Good food. The Patagonia calamari was delicious but a bit steep in price but it was worth the spoil.
