Geocaching at Shelly Beach

One of the things I enjoy most about Geocaching is the fact that it takes you to interesting and beautiful places. A good example is a cache I placed at Shelly Beach at Lauries Bay about 2 km along the beach from Kini Bay.

Flat rocks at Flat Rocks

Flat Rocks is the area between Pollok Beach and Cape REcife where the rocks stretch out to see at low tide. The rocks are very accessible and very popular with fishermen. The younger crowd in PE wouldn't know that the spot where the Flat Rocks parking area is now (across from the Humewood Golf Course … Continue reading Flat rocks at Flat Rocks →

Noordhoek coastal view
