South Africa’s penguins heading toward extinction; will no-fishing zones help?

With just 10,000 breeding pairs left, the endangered African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) could be extinct in the wild by 2035 if the current rate of population decline continues.

A day in Cape Town to look forward to

Have a day to spend in the famous Mother City? Start with a hearty breakfast, then head to Table Mountain for incredible views of the surrounding area. Be sure to make time for the famous V&A Waterfront for some well-deserved retail therapy!

Enjoy a family-friendly trip to the Castle of Good Hope

This historic gem is one of the oldest surviving buildings in South Africa. It has been exceptionally preserved and provides a fun outing for the whole family with every visit. As it is in proximity to many Cape Town attractions, visitors can certainly make a day out of it.

Collaborative Snare Free Initiative Proves Its Worth

Three months ago, on 1 August, leading conservation, animal welfare and volunteer organisations in the Western Cape joined forces to launch Snare Free – a multi-component initiative aimed at providing a coordinated response to snared wildlife incidents in the province.

Get closer to nature in Pilansberg

Planning a getaway to Gauteng? Pilansberg is conveniently located about a two-hour drive from Johannesburg and offers affordable safaris in a unique landscape. If you want to head out into nature or love camping, this is the perfect setting where you can enjoy gorgeous landscapes and wildlife.

Visit the penguins at Boulders Beach

Whether you pay for the full entry experience and to swim with the penguins, or simply enjoy the walkway to view penguins close by, this experience is a must when you are in the area. There are several surrounding eateries to visit after your penguin viewing, and you can even buy a souvenir or two at the Boulders Visitor Centre.

Travel via the Chapman’s Peak route 

Take sightseeing a level further with the Chapman’s Peak route. Amazing sea views await with many lookout points on the way – just remember that this route operates as a toll road. It is well worth it though, and you can enjoy the incredible views of the Cape Coast at leisure.

Take a trip down memory lane in Calitzdorp 

Love getting a taste of history? Calitzdorp in the Western Cape offers gorgeous scenery with the Klein Karoo as its backdrop. Experience this well-known producer of port wine and the beautiful outdoor experiences it offers to visitors in the area.
