Following the success of "Listing Jozi", "Listing Cape Town" and "Listing Mauritius", BBC Lifestyle recently announced their new addition to the franchise, "Listing Coastal South Africa".
The new show, which is currently in production, will take audiences on a captivating journey along one of Africa's most picturesque coastlines.
Set to premiere later this year on BBC Lifestyle (DStv channel 174), "Listing Coastal South Africa" will guide viewers through the pristine landscapes of the country's coastal regions, from the unspoiled shores of the KwaZulu-Natal coastline to the breathtaking beauty of the Eastern Cape, the iconic Garden Route and the rugged charm of the West Coast, culminating at the southernmost tip of the continent.
The ten-part series is set to highlight some of South Africa's most extravagant homes, offering a rare glimpse into the luxurious lifestyles of those who call these coastal paradises home.
"Viewers will get the chance to follow agents as they do what it takes to sell a suite of luxury homes.
"With its signature blend of aspirational living, high-end real estate, and local flair, 'Listing Coastal South Africa' is a must-watch for property enthusiasts, dream-home seekers and those who want a fly-on-the-wall access to an estate agent's world," the channel said in a media statement.
Producer Nico Nel emphasised the intent behind the new show: "It will tell a new story of South Africa's coastline through the lens of luxury living. Each region has its own unique charm with incredible homes, and we're excited to bring that to life for BBC Lifestyle this year."
Meanwhile, co-producer Trevor Kaplan expressed enthusiasm about delving into areas traditionally overlooked: "What we've found so far during filming is nothing short of extraordinary. These properties are world-class, and so are the agents."
Pierre Cloete, vice president for Africa at BBC Studios said the channel is proud to be championing local content.
"This exciting new instalment brings a fresh perspective, celebrating the breathtaking beauty of South Africa's coastline, while maintaining the exceptional quality, creativity and storytelling our audiences know and love. I can't wait for everyone to see it."

Lasizwe cuts ties with MultiChoice amid podcast payment dispute
Lasizwe's podcast, Awkward Dates, was among eight original shows announced by MultiChoice in March this year to air on its DStv platforms. Media personality and YouTuber Thulasizwe 'Lasizwe' Dambuza has reportedly parted ways with MultiChoice. This follows a dispute involving unpaid fees and an alleged breach of agreement with social media influencer Dominic Zaca. Lasizwe's podcast, Awkward Dates, was among eight original shows announced by MultiChoice in March this year to air on its DStv platforms. However, according to City Press the collaboration has allegedly collapsed due to controversy over guest compensation. Zaca took to TikTok, accusing Lasizwe and his team of airing her episode on television without her consent. Zaca claimed their agreement restricted distribution to social media platforms only. 'Lasizwe Dambuza, would you and your team like to pay me for breaching the contract we had? 'You guys breached a verbal contract, you breached a written contract, and I don't know what contract you gave to MultiChoice. I would think that MultiChoice would not air my episode, knowing full well that I did not sign that contract in full agreement.' Zaca alleged that the production team and Lasizwe had ignored attempts to resolve the matter privately. 'I've been trying to settle this privately with emails and phone calls, but you're just ignoring me. Unfortunately, my job is my face, my voice, and my body — that's how I support my family, so you are basically using me.'

When guest Cyan Boujee asked Lasizwe how much he owed Zaca, he responded dismissively: 'Who's that?' He then asked Cyan how much she believed he owed Zaca, since she had also featured on Awkward Dates. Cyan replied that he owed her nothing, to which Lasizwe said, 'Thank you,' before moving on from the topic. NOW READ: Boitshepo Lamola to fly SA flag at Miss Grand International 2025 in Bangkok
