Saldanha
Further north still is the working seaside town of Saldanha, a working town with a steel works as well as a fishing industry, a military base as well as catering for tourists.
We found an Hotel, right on the beach, complete with a visiting, rugby team.
The view from our balcony was lovely and we saw a Little Egret fishing on the water’s edge just as they do in Millbrook.
A few feet from the shore we noticed a number of fish which reminded us of the Bat Rays we had seen in Australia. They sting so no swimming just there.
As we explored the harbour area we noticed some divers at work under a fishing boat.
Our curiosity being aroused we watched as the boat was winched out of the water for its annual certification test.
The whole process took only a few minutes and 430 tonnes of boat was high and dry and safely ashore.
