Robberg Nature Reserve

Robberg Nature reserve

COUNTRY: South Africa

AREA: Wilderness


General

Robberg Nature Reserve along with kilometres of glorious beaches, edges the "Bay Beautiful" - Plettenberg Bay. Robberg has it all - spectacular scenery, unimpeded vistas of ocean and shore, uniquely adapted vegetation, a thriving seal colony, caracal, grysbok, porcupine, rock hyrax sunbirds and seabirds and funny little lizards (agamas) who watch you quizzically wherever you sit. On top of all this are its other secrets - fossils of unimagined antiquity under one's feet (if you know where to look): caves where stone-age man hunted and fished, lived and died; stories of shipwrecks more dramatic than any fiction, and of fishing tales from times when shoals of great game fish surged past its flanks. Even the rock faces have tales to tell of giant inland seas, rising and falling mountain ranges and sea levels - the birth and death of rocky beaches and quiet lagoons.

Walk high above the water and view schools of dolphins, gamefish or shark as they pass by. From May to November the peninsula offers excellent land based whale watching when the Southern Right Whale comes into the shelter of the bay to mate and calve.

Take one of three guided walks - especially tailored to suit your personal interests and fitness level.
