Area Information:

Velddrif is a quaint fishing town situated on the estuary of the Berg River on the West Coast of South Africa, approximately 145 km north of Cape Town. This charming town is a hidden gem that offers visitors a unique blend of natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and authentic coastal charm.

The heart of Velddrif lies along the banks of the Berg River, where traditional fishing boats known as “bakkies” can often be seen bobbing gently in the water. Fishing is a way of life for many residents of Velddrif, and the town is renowned for its fresh seafood, including snoek, mussels, and crayfish. Visitors can enjoy delicious seafood dishes at local restaurants or purchase fresh catches directly from the fishermen at the harbour.

The estuary of the Berg River is a haven for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts, with its diverse ecosystem supporting a wide variety of bird species, including flamingos, pelicans, and herons. The surrounding wetlands and salt pans also provide a habitat for numerous bird species, making Velddrif a popular destination for birdwatching and nature photography.

In addition to its natural beauty and fishing heritage, Velddrif boasts a rich cultural history that dates back to the early Dutch settlers who arrived in the area in the 18th century. The town’s historic architecture, quaint streets, and museums offer visitors a glimpse into its past, while the local community prides itself on preserving its cultural traditions and heritage.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to do in Velddrif, with a range of activities available to explore the surrounding landscape. Kayaking and boating on the Berg River estuary are popular pastimes, allowing visitors to experience the beauty of the area from the water. There are also hiking trails that wind through the nearby salt pans and wetlands, offering opportunities to spot wildlife and enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings.

In summary, Velddrif is a charming fishing town that offers visitors a relaxing escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. With its stunning natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and warm hospitality, Velddrif is a destination that captures the heart and soul of the West Coast. Whether you’re a foodie, a nature lover, or a history buff, Velddrif has something for everyone to enjoy.

Laaiplek is situated right at the mouth of the Berg River. The South African Sea Fisheries Museum is well worth a visit and since the Berg River is tidal, the area is also well-known for birding. Upstream from its mouth, the Berg River curls inland to form Port Owen – a series of canals that form a marina with the stunning Port Owen Yacht Club and a variety of guest houses within.

A good place to explore the west coast from as it’s setting is great on the marina. The marina is definitely the best place to stay. Gorgeous views and sunsets on the water. Russell’s on the Port for sundowners or a meal and Charlie’s brewery are really great- both in the Marina. The marina is definitely the place to stay in the area and I can recommend a few easily accessible trips from there. Alegria restaurant en route to St Helena is great and has a fantastic seaside setting. Really gorgeous.A visit to Hopefield to Simply bee is well worth it to buy their products as well as have a coffee and a cake or savoury board. It also has a beauty salon and bee observation and decor shop. There is also a quaint restaurant next door called Hello. It’s a quaint little town with a few shops to browse- don’t miss the craft shop with dolls house miniatures that are amazing. A day trip to Paternoster is also worth the drive as it has lots of shops to visit and a good few restaurants, galleries and coffee shops. Just be careful of opportunists. All the towns are roughly 20-30 minutes away so an easy drive. All in all we enjoyed the area.

Fabulous. 4 out of 5
