Arachne Consulting
"A pristine beach of white sand that offers visitors picturesque views and unspoiled natural beauty. Well worth the entrance fee for a full day of fun. Take a trek (walk) through the reserve or hike along one of the nearby trails before having a picnic or braai (BBQ) on the beach. The beach is on the smaller side with calm, clear water excellent for swimming and snorkeling. Although sheltered, it is advisable to check the weather for potentially strong winds. Enjoy taking in the wildlife, however, be aware of baboons and please don’t feed them.
