Red Hill Pass to Kommetjie

Koeksusters yum! We got them from the free range farm stall at Kommetjie - where I also bought a b/w photo of race horses on the beach. It's taken from above and behind so you can look through their ears.

Simons Town from Red Hill Pass
Our route to Kommetjie took us up Redhill Pass from where there are spectacular high up views of Simon's Town - impossible to capture on a small camera.

Nicky and Winnie on Scarborough Beach

Scarborough Beach is on the other side of the pass and far less touristy than the beaches near Fish Hoek- probably due to the distance and freezing water. But it's very picturesque with white sand, rocks and big blue waves. Some large dogs were having an absolute ball.


Slangkop Lighthouse on the way to Kommetjie

This morning we managed a swim for the first time, on Fish Hoek beach. We were slow getting in due to the coldness of the water, but quick getting out when the shark siren went off. Even though the red flag was still showing, people lost their fear and were back in the water within about 20 mins. Not us !
