Morning all.

Thinking of planning a drive up Langebaan way this weekend with the family. We’ve never been up that way, is there anything particular I should go or look at?

Not much. They just have a big lake. I prefer Yzerfontein - much more scenic and a lot closer as well.

Now that’s useful information.

I love both places, just be wary of the water in Yzerfontein, it has many riptides. But walking from the harbour across the rocks you will find many tide pools and so on.

Before picking mussles just check that they are safe, aka no redtide or pollution spills. Also when picking black mussles just check that its not a conservation area nor that they are small.

I haven’t been there in over 15 years. My aunt has a house just above the harbour, so did a lot of fishing from the rocks and swimming hence the warning. I got caught in a riptode once.

Keep in mind the further up the coast you go the colder the water aka wetsuits.

In langebaan there is lots of restaurants and the lagoon to walk around. Bear in mind DONT speed at any point there. They slap hectic fines on people. There is the nature reserve where you pay to go in and drive thru with some hiking paths.

Also, great information, thank you.

I don’t think we’ll be swimming or anything of that nature. I wanna pack a picnic bag for the road and stop somewhere scenic and possibly walk around a take in the scenery. Would be nice to hike or walk along some trails etc.

Trying to cut avoid additional expenses as that will be put into petrol so will try to stay away from restaurants or the like. We’re interested in scenery and sightseeing, nature and wilderness.

Yzerfontein has some ostriches roaming around if you head to Pearl Bay’s side. There are some nice picnic spots on the beach that are unspoilt and quiet and quite private during off-peak times.

As luck would have it, buy a new chef knife and get cut while cleaning it.

Only place up there I’ve been is Shelley Point Hotel in St Helena Bay. We got an amazing special, and it was really really nice. It’s crazy expensive now though, and much further away than you were planning to go.

I did a thing. More like a walk, run, workout mish-mash.

That’s pretty neat! I’ve been on the internet too long, I was expecting something rude to be drawn… :sweat_smile:
