5 day Oystercatcher Trail

On the walk a trained guide teaches you about the wonders of the coast where the endangered Black Oystercatcher finds its food, lays it's eggs and feeds its chicks. The sight of whales in winter and dolphins frolicking just behind the breakers will long be remembered. Contour paths are followed where the Indian Ocean thunders against high cliffs far below. Overnight accommodation in luxury guesthouses is part of the journey. Swimming in the breakers can be enjoyed all year round along quiet golden beaches where the old strandlopers feasted and left middens of shells and Stone Age implements. Snorkel in quiet rock pools and small private bays. Fresh sea food and traditional cuisine await you at night, in front of an open fireplace. The walk takes you along high dunes where the world of sea and sand stretches endlessly. Explore ancient fish traps at Kanon and Cape Vacca. At the end of the trail, you will have discovered how important man's contribution is in the conservation of our fragile environment.
