WILDERNESS BEACH

A visitor that enjoyed the sun on our beach the
other day.. this Seal. He was so happy sitting on
our beach undisturbed. Many people walked
passed him and he did not even blinked an eye.
Mossel Bay is not even an hours drive from us and
you can have a boat trip from the Harbour to see
the Seals on Seal Island
We saw so many Whales just in front of our Guesthouse yesterday... this is their mating time
and you must see them perform.... !!

MOODS OF WILDERNESS BEACH

We see these fishermen daily, some fish through
the night all in the hope to get the BIG one.
Through all the years I have not seen many of
them that was very successful !
But we have experienced a very exciting catch one day when someone caught a 35kg Cob and after a few hours of struggle could finally bring it
in (man alone) Then he also had a problem getting it into his car. Model of the story....be prepared for the when luck gets your way.
We have so many exciting things happening on our lovely beach!

End of September and hopefully beginning of the Summer after a long cold winter.
Our lovely outstreched sandy Beach is one of the most wonderful
sights in the Garden Route and would like to show you in the next post all the moods of the Beach.
1. The Romantic mood.... for all our Honeymoon Couples to enjoy.
Wilderness is so popular for Honeymooners. ... for some it is their first Honeymoon, and others the second or 10th Honeymoon.....as long as it is enjoyed !

Danie and myself have seen so many Honeymoon Couples during
the 20 years. Some came back to show the first, second and sometimes the third child.
Our Honeymoon couples are spoiled with shampaigne, flowers, fruit and chocolates in their room.


NOW CAN YOU SEE WHAT WE SAY BY ROMANTIC ???

THIS IS SO ROMANTIC.... HONEY

MOON IN WILDERNESS!!!

Whats up in Wilderness and Area ?


Springtime in the Garden Route

This means FLOWERS & FLOWERS like most other places on earth. But what is unique
about Wilderness flowers ?

We have the Aloes that are growing wild everywhere and with its bright orange and red colours ... brightens up the dreary cold and winter days.

The Choo choo Train used to run through our small village but nowadays only the Wilderness Station is still up and running as a Restaurant. The area along the rail is covered with so many
different kinds of Aloes and so many tourists stop to take photos of this wonderful
colour display.
It is also a bird photographers dream taking the best shots of so many different birds.
During the winter months our guesthouse closes for the whole month of June and our staff
and Danie and myself go on our annual holiday. This year we went to the Kruger National
Park and last week we went to Namaqualand, that is on the West Coast of the Cape.
In my next posting I will show you my best photos of both these places.
This is my first attempt to start my own blog and hopefully it will just get better every time!
Would like to know that every person that will read my blog will enjoy the wonders of this
magnificent Garden Route.
In my next posting I will also show photos of the staff and of Danie and myself.
Between us.... we have ? (how many) grandchildren ?? Ooh my, so many, we are so blessed!
Till next time
