| Things
to do on the West Coast |
 |
A few steps
and you are walking on one of the most beautiful and pristine
beaches on the West Coast.
The
bay is very protected and the water is a little warmer than most
places on the West Coast, due to the Benguela current not entering
the bay.
One of the
deciding factors when we built our home here was the fact that
the beach was so safe. |
 |
This
meant that children could safely play and swim while we sat on the
veranda, watching and relaxing.
Rocherpan, The Lower Berg
River and Langebaan are close by as well as the West Coast National
Park.
|
 |
We
are also close to several Nature
Reserves. Cape Columbine's famous lighthouse (the first lighthouse
usually seen by ships coming from Europe) and Nature Reserve is
a must for all nature lovers.
A visit to the Fossil
Park where you can discover what the West Coast was like 5
million years ago, is a treat for everyone.

 |
During
springtime, the West Coast bursts into colour as wild flowers magically
transform the landscape.
There is also a nine hole golf course at Shelly
Point, which is about one kilometre down the road.
The Vredenburg, Saldanha and Berg River Golf courses
are only a short drive away.
