Sunset on the Mossel River






The light was beautiful on my cliff path walk this evening with my son, Stephen. Loved these photographs of the sunset reflecting on the wet sand.

This is my all time favorite spot for climbing down the cliffs of the Cliff Path in Hermanus, and taking photographs of the swells as they throw themselves against the rock face. This spot is quite close to Siever’s Punt and is called Die Eiland.

On those days that I can rouse myself to get up and go out into the cold to exercise during our crazy exercise hours here in South Africa, during lockdown, the imagery is truly beautiful. These are photos taken between Langbaai and The Klein River Estuary at the far end of Grotto Beach.

How cool is this rock pile statue that I found on Voëlklip Beach yesterday. I love the way that the tip of the pile lines up with the strange cloud formation we saw in the sky. I think this was my zen moment of the day.

The Mossel River flows from Fernkloof Nature Reserve to enter the sea at Mossel River Beach. At this point the river is really a stream and no more than half a Labrador deep. With care, you can rock-hop the stream on the beach near where it enters the sea. The Hermanus Cliff Path is accommodated here with this wooden bridge. A previous, less robust version was destroyed when heavy rains brought the river down in flood a few years ago.
This photo was taken while sitting next to the Mossel River, watching the dragonflies dance across the water and the bees collecting nectar in the patch of yellow Gazania’s that you can see in the photo. A little wagtail was catching insects between the rocks and seagulls and Black Oyster Catchers were bathing in the fresh water as the River met the sea.
