InterNations helps you meet and interact with other Brits in South Africa, living in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and many other places across the country. Just take a look at our group ofBrits in Johannesburg orBrits in Cape Town.

  • Receive and share advice in our South Africa Expat Forums – e.g. how to find a nanny speaking your kids’ native tongue or where to shop for roast beef in Cape Town...
  • Browse the InterNations Places database for South Africa to find institutions like the nearest British embassy and many others.

Take Part in Various Expat Activities to Meet Fellow Brits in South Africa

Additionally, you are cordially invited to participate in our regular expat events and activities taking place in South Africa. Our events cover various interests and range from a small expat dinner to enjoy the traditional South African bobotie, to big expat get-togethers with hundreds of guests in Cape Town's top locations. You may also join one of our expat excursions for a weekend trip together with a group of fellow Brits in Pretoria to visit the Cape of Good Hope, the wilderness trails of Kruger National park, and other impressive landmarks across South Africa.

This way, our events and activities are a very nice occasion to meet fellow expats from United Kingdom and around the world in a casual atmosphere. Interested? Sign up for membership and you’ll soon be welcomed with a warm Hello from our Brits living in South Africa!
