Taking a swim! This is the best thing to do during a hot summer day in Cape Town. Going to Crystal Pools is worth it.

This is one long route, takes around a hour to get to the location of the pools and its a hard walk. The relief is sure worth it when reaching the actual pools.

During the last 6 years this blog was a lot of things, one of those is dysfunctional. We hope to change that now.

We hope to feature events, news and everything to do with the Helderberg area, specifically Somerset West, Gordons Bay and Strand.
