An Exploring South African

Curiosity, travel, and discovering new places. Craig Lotter's An Exploring South African is primarily a South African travel blog of things to do in and around Cape Town, the Helderberg, and the Cape Winelands.

No clouds in the sky means no spectacular Autumn sunset for me this evening. Oh well, at least the wind has finally died down! #sunset #beachwalk #beach #gordonsbaybeach #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Golden light settling over Gordon's Bay main beach this evening. #goldenhour #beachwalk #beach #gordonsbaybeach #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Moved about the sand dunes in the evening light this evening. #sanddunes #beachwalk #beach #gordonsbaybeach #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

Always disheartening to see. Following a very smelly week of Red Tide (toxic algae bloom) in our waters, the beach is absolutely littered with dead sea creatures at the moment. My walk along the Gordon's Bay main beach this evening yielded an unending line of dead crabs, sea urchins, sea anenemones, sea cucumbers, starfish, barnacles, abalone, skates, jellyfish, fish and even big octopuses. #redtide #algaebloom #octopus #beachwalk #beach #gordonsbaybeach #gordonsbay #helderberg #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican

With no cakes having to go out the door for @thehelderbergcakecompany on Sunday, Chantelle, the girls, and I enjoyed a lazy afternoon of nibbling on pizza, sipping coffee, and rolling on the grass lawn at Bluebird Cafe, situated next to the old Mountain Breeze farm stall on the R44 between Stellenbosch and Somerset West. #pizza #sundaylunch #familytime #bluebirdcafe #mountainbreeze #r44 #stellenbosch #southafrica #anexploringsouthafrican
