Plett (as it
is called by the locals) is a great spot to enjoy the beach and waves of the
Indian Ocean. In Wilderness the waves were wild, strong and unpredictable.
Here, body surfing and jumping waves was much more enjoyable. Miles of soft
sand and beach. The beach was full of sunbathers, rugby players, and families
enjoying the water.
We camped
along a river just a few kilometres from the town. A supper of salad sandwiches and cookies makes us want to get some cooking equipment!
Vervet monkeys were exciting
for us to see but were considered a nuisance by everyone else. Luckily, the
baboons lived across the river and did not cross very often. During the night,
we had our first rain since we arrived in South Africa.
This was a
great stop – one we will try to stop in on the way back to Cape Town.
