Knysna

By basing ourselves in Victoria Bay, means that we are surrounded by indigenous forest, lakes, mountains and a stunning coastline. With so much beauty to choose from, we spent the day at Knysna. The photograph of the churning water is taken from the Knysna Heads. The Heads are two cliffs flanking a treacherous channel linking the Indian Ocean with the large lagoon of the Knysna River. Many ships have been lost on these rocks while trying to traverse the Heads. Matthew and I later walked along the rocks and tidal pools below the Heads. In the one pool Matthew had a fishing net and was trying to catch a small fish when a octopus came out from under a ledge to investigate the net. We were amazed.
