Miss South Africa 2014, the 59th edition of the Miss South Africa pageant, was held on 30 March 2014 at Sun City Superbowl.

The pageant was broadcast on DStv on Mzansi Magic, and was hosted by television and radio personality Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp. The final was contested by 12 girls who were selected after weeks of grueling challenges at Sun City International.

The pageant was won by Rolene Strauss who, in the December of the same year, was also crowned Miss World.[2] Strauss' winning of the Miss World title made her ineligible for Miss Universe; this led to Miss South Africa 2014 first runner up Ziphozakhe Zokufa being crowned Miss South Africa,[3] to allow Zokufa to compete for the Miss Universe 2014 crown.[4]
