Today we were heading for the West Coast National Park. The park spreads around the Langebaan Lagoon which is home to a great number of seabirds, waders and migratory birds. Unfortunately we have been there at high tide so we could not see any of these.
The areaŽs vegetation consists of indigenous fynbos and features rich flower carpets in season. In the Postberg section there are also different kinds of antelope to be seen.
