"..this
little town is able to offer some of the world's best boat-
and shore-based whale watching and unquestionably the world's
best white-shark diving. the sensational marine tourist attractions
should not be the only things to lure you, however. some of
the cape's best-conserved fynbos adorns the mountains in the
area and numerous walks and trails criss-cross it. the lighthouse
at danger point is open to tourists, and you can climb the stairs
to the revolving light and peer out at the restless waters that
cover the remains of the famous birkenhead wreck. after a week
spent wandering the streets of gansbaai and its surroundings,
we can comfortably say that this, truly, is the gem of the overberg." |
