Some nice stuff here, but consider the following:

* Maclear's Beacon is on the top of Table Mountain. You have it in the Overberg somewhere, perhaps add a hint? Table Mountain would probably be the better mountain for International users, I doubt many non-South Africans have heard of Maclear's Beacon.

* Please accept "Golden Gate" for "Golden Gate Highlands National Park". Most South Africans call it that.

* I would accept "Mossel Bay" for Mosselbaai, most of the users won't speak Afrikaans.

* Consider adding: Tugela Falls, Augrabies Falls, Vaal River, Tugela River, Vredefort Dome, Namib Desert, Karoo. The quiz is quite "settlement heavy" as opposed to natural features.
