Robberg National Park

Today, after we left Tsala Treetops, we drove along the N2 heading to Knysna. While Suvrat, Collin, Luke, and Dag went to go do the World’s Tallest Bungee Jump; Michael, Tara, Matt and I went to Robberg National Park. We hike around the peninsula for a bit. When we got to the beach, we saw a lot of “nature” (inside joke).

Mike and I climbed out onto some rocks that lead out into the Indian Ocean, and saw some pretty cool things. In some of the pools on top of the rocks, we found some corals and some anemones. Once we pressed on a little further, we found some rocks that were covered (and I mean covered) in clams. The rocks were black with them.

After being amazed by this, we continued our trek around the island, hiking up some rocks. Mike and I had some issues with this part of the trip, as the path was winding around the mountain, and was probably only two to three feet wide, and the fall to our left was incredibly far and steep. After a ways, we turned around and made our way back down the mountain and to the car. It was an amazing time all-in-all, as just about everything on this safari has been.
