Sandstone rocks and ancient dunes

One of the features of Eersterivier is the ancient sandstone rocks along the sore.

Eersterivier

A week or so ago we spent a weekend at Eersterivier in the Tsitsikamma. I hesitate to call it a village as it is nothing more than two rows of houses wedged between the beach in front and the hill behind.

Baywatch

A couple of lifeguards watching the swimming area at the main beach in Cannon Rocks. When I walked up to the guys with my camera in hand I think they were quite curious about what I wanted.

I popped down to the beach to get some sunset pictures and saw this lone fisherman walking along the shore with all his equipment. Probably on his way to his favorite fishing spot.
