Cave Dwellers on the coast


This is an interior shot of a cave just 15 minutes walk away from the guest house. Yes, you`re right, there are people living here.
This used to be a restaurant. Since the local Tchoe Tchoe train has stopped running here, this restaurant closed.
Now there are people living in the cave. They have running water and ablutions but no electricity and no way to close off!! It must get very cold here in Winter with no sunshine entering the cave and loads of moisture in the air.

Interesting and just a bit wacky. Mobiles of shells adorn the ceiling and dining room tables are set for a banquet.

A lovely walk along the railway tracks and in full view of the ocean leads to the cave.
