Make every step count on Sunny Saturday!

Yet another downpour and I was wondering whether we should think of calling Saturday's family hike to Smitwinkel Bay off. As a last resort check to see if perhaps the forecast for Saturday had changed, I was pleasantly surprised to find it has! We now have perfect conditions forecast. A cool day (16deg), no rain and partially cloudy. So if you were thinking it might not be the Saturday to venture out and join us, get your boots and bathers and think again. Smitswinkel Bay tends to be more sheltered from SW winds which are expected. For details see:
