Well, another spot to visit. We had an awesome experience anyone should try. The owner of Mozambik, Brett, has an initiative going...once a month takes a group interested people to a restaurant in Shakashead to experience local traditional cuisine. An absolute must foodie adventure. Not only for the food, but the humbling that comes with it. We are so blessed, any time you feel the need to complain when the simple things in life challenge you, think again, think of those less fortunate. 🤔

Hi Glen, sorry, just saw your comment now. We wonder if the owner of Mozambik still do those tours, sounds like we would really love an experience like that 🤗

Salt Rock looks like such a lovely beach town. How cool you can camp so close to that hotel. The waves in this video were crazy, no wonder you couldnt use the audio...it looked so windy. But hey it is awesome you saw a whale at the other beach! It seems there is so much to do here!

I was there . Stayed at the Caravan park. Had a wonderful time ...had the best curry I've ever had at Salt Rock Hotel !! I'll be back soon for sure ! Really good value for money and such nice staff both at C.park and hotel. Well done and thank you ! John.

Whale watching sitting by the pool is something ..out of the world. !! Loved the entire salt rock area , .. lots of things to do !! Hope u guys enjoyed the lunch with the family around .. !! Chantal .. u look so much like your mom....!! ❤️❤️

I really love watching your videos guys. Your doing such a good job. I travel a lot but this is exactly what i wanted to see inorder to plan for my future trips. Your doing such a good job with the videos. Please if you are able to do some videos in the Hermanus area along the coast all the way to capetown. i would really love to see those videos too.

Hi Laurence, glad to hear that our videos are helpful 😁 We did a series of videos from Durban to Cape Town and back...it’s more vlog style than informational, so not sure if it’s what your looking for, but here is the link to the playlist: kzread.info/head/PLDokcPPUJA1W70llgmkFJKSAk0hCNA4Yi

Salt Rock was our favourite camping place in the early 80's, my dad loved the caravan park there, it is part of my DNA. I'm living in Brisbane nowadays, but I miss those years...our next trip to South Africa will definately include a visit to Salt Rock and Ballito...

This is the place to be.

What a fun town! Your parents are so cute your mom “subscribe”🤣. KZread just sent me this video I thought it was new! So glad I didn’t miss it! ~Cara

Stayed in the Salt Rock Hotel in '70s with my Aunt and my cousin's, it was so beautiful. It has glamed up alot since then. I think we could eat dinner for 4 for about R4. The part I enjoyed most of your video was the sea and the whales. I would love to see more beach scenes, preferably with just the sound of the sea. We live in the UK so seeing videos like this brings back memories. You are so fortunate to have your family with you. Thanks for showing us what's going on there. Best wishes from N Ireland :)

Oh wow I saw the WHALE! That is so cool! I need to remind us not to watch your videos while hungry, because it's bad news bears for just some munchies! It's BEACH VIBES! HAHA.
