Exploring Cannon Rocks and surrounding areas.

Are you looking for an awesome spot on the beach to sit and have lunch? We can definitely recommend Lekker Bekkie https://www.facebook.com/share/1BJnvjBPru/

We had their burgers and wraps. Very tasty and great value for money. The Chips were Devine. They don't look like much, but I've definitely had better food there than at some of the fancy places. Definitely go give them a try!

First Whale sighting!

We were so privileged today to spot one of the first whales for the migration season to be breaching.

It was smacking its tail, breaching almost full body out of the water and obviously blowing.

I'm sure our guests will be delighted to watch the rest of the whales passing by this stretch of coastline.
