SOUTH AFRICA - Snoekies at Kalky’s

The Cape Peninsula lies just to the south of Cape Town, with the famous Chapman’s Peak Drive winding round the cliffs down towards Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope  (the most South Westerly point of Africa). We spent a few days down here hiking in the beautiful Table Mountain, and Silvermines National Parks, and visiting the beautiful beaches and fishing villages.

One of the Fishing ports was Kalks Bay, where every afternoon around 3pm the fleet of fishing boats return to harbour with their days catch, followed by the seals hoping for a tasty treat!

Coming in with the days catch

Off the boat and straight onto the market floor
