Langebaan lagoon

Langebaan West Coast The sea separates a narrow strip of land from the continent by means of the Langebaan  lagoon which stretches quite a long way inland. In spite of very cold water it has developed into a popular holiday destination for the sunseekers and water lover.  It is home to the West Coast National Park (wetland) and  the West Coast Fossil Park..

Saldanha

SaldanhaSituated at the top of the Langebaan Lagoon (north shore) this town is at the largest natural bay in South Africa and besides being an important seafood source it serves as an iron ore export harbour for some mines situated 800 km inland. (Sishen) It is also a renowned watersport paradise and contains the SA Military Academy and a naval training base.

Velddrif and Surrounds

Velddrif
Situated at the mouth of the Berg River which is famous for the annual Canoe Marathon and contains Port Owen resort which is ideally situated for yachts. Velddrif  is also known for bokkems (dried fish) found at Dwarskersbos

Lampberts Bay and Muisbosskerm

Lampberts BayAt the mouth of the Jakkals River lies Lampberts Bay which has transitioned from a fishing village to a holiday resort. It contains the only breeding colony of Cape gannets in the world accessible on foot and is well worth a visit.

Muisbos SkermJust south of Lampberts Bay en route to Elandsbaai  lies the peculiar eating place Muisbosskerm right on the beach. It has become  well known for traditional South African dishes and seafood prepared like it was a few hundred years ago and you eat as and when the dishes finish cooking. It can take a few hours if you want to partake of every dish but is an absolutely unique experience that is a taste sensation per minute.
