When you go to Yzerfontein you just have to take walks on the two superb long white beaches
This is the beach we could see from our accommodation, Swept Away,
and it was lovely to watch this man with his small child flying a kite
Just what Lynne and her father used to do when she was this age
The sound of the waves on the beach is so soporific when you are falling asleep
A family spending the day on the beach below our accommodation, Swept Away, the house in the middle in the top row
One day the south Easter had been blowing and it brings in lots of jelly fish
These are Compass jelly fish, not very dangerous;
the sting is like a bee sting and no one on the beach seemed to be stung while we were there
There were so many of them and they were all beautifully marked; some look just like glass paper weights
Early morning walkers having a chat
On the other beach, called 16 mile beach, the sand is firmer
and the waves are more gentle
We saw this kelp gull devouring a crab
The seagulls were very scarce while we were there and so were the other sea birds. We did wonder why?
Normally you see so many and certainly lots of cormorants
He was really getting every bit out of that shell
Our view across the cold Atlantic Ocean toward Table Mountain and our home on a perfect 'blue' seaside day
Late evening; you can see the South Easter clouds gathering over Table Mountain
