OUR COASTAL TREASURE

 

 

This is a unique corner of South Africa, environmentally.    It has extraordinary plant-life, wildlife and marine life, all waiting to be discovered by visitors and residents.   It is not exaggerating to call it a treasure trove.

The Enviro-Trust published a booklet titled Our Coastal Treasure in 1985 and updated it in 2001 and in 2011.   Moving into the digital age, we have now updated it again – online.
