I love Warner Beach... perhaps because I grew up along this little coastal strip... What beach do you like most and why?

Did a cross country trip in 2002 from Ponta D'Ouro in the south of Moz to the northern border with Tanzania and back. On our looking for safe (no landmines) places to camp we chanced on a beach called Pangane (not Pandane in the south) 2 days north of Pemba.
The most beautiful unspoilt stretch of beach with water so clear you could see the sand at the bottom in areas meters deep.
Glorious, and it was just us 5 vehicles camping there.
We all vouched to go back one day.
One day will probably not come since it took 6 days to travel there and it was before all the tarred roads. It was a bit rough then.

Because I grew up in Margate it will always be my favourite beach. Every time I go there, even for a drive, it brings back such good memories of my childhood.

Just a pity of the security stories and issues there now.. We used to camp there a few years in a row but I would not take my kids there now... Safety is a big concern everywhere close to beaches

I agree with Ian Jennings No place like Melkbosstrand We have lived here for 27 years Wont change it for the world People from all over pack our beach on weekends and holidays and there is still plenty of room left As member of the Nabourhood Watch I can assure you it is one of the safest little towns in RSA

Sonder twyfel geniet ek Hartenbos die meeste maar kort op sy hakke in die Suid-Kaap is Vic Baai en Heroldsbaai, nader aan my huis, alhoewel die water vrek koud is, is Scarborough en Noordhoek strande met een van my gunsteling swempoelle Dalebrooke in Kalkbaai

As dit gaan oor mooi natuur....sal dit seker n plekkie in die kaap wees. As dit gaan oor swem was Margate nog altyd baie lekker...net baie jammer die plek gaan so agteruit. Ballito is ook baie lekker....al nadeel is dat jy eers verby klomp rotse moet kom voor jy in die see kan swem. Afgelope Desember het die rotse sò erg gepla dat mens nie eers kon swem nie. Strand kan ook bietjie te beknopt raak oor Desember. n lekker groot sand swem strand wat ons tans geniet is die een by Natalia...kry ook nie eintlik locals en dagbesoekers op strand nie aangesien jy deur oord moet kom om op strand te kom...hulle kan daar kom, maar is ver loop

Stilbaai vir my! Dis seker een van die mooiste en veiligste strande aan ons kus en geskik vir baie meer mense as wat daarvan gebruikmaak. Die strand loop geleidelik dieper en daar is nie rotse of maalgate nie.  Dan kan jy ook  veilig vir meer kilometer stap as waarvoor meeste mense lus het.  Die karavaanpark is ook so te sê op die swemstrand.  Die park word egter eintlik maar net oor Desembers beset en dan is hy tjok en blok. Die enigste negatiewe is dat bloublasies nogal gereeld daar voor kom, maar ons leef daarmee saam.

Maar ek s natuurlik bevooroordeeld aangesien ons deeltyds hier woon.

Geert ek moet jou gelyk gee. Ons woon in Uvongo n voorstad van Margate. Gelukkig bly ons in die woonbuurt en het nie veel met die strande te doen nie. Waar ons bly het ons egter n mooi uitsig oor die see maar nie die lawaai en kattekwaad wat saam met dit gaan nie. Margate strand was eens die juweel van die suidkus. Pragtige strand en mooi ontwikkel. Deesdae is dit vir die "locals" n "no go". Hoe jammer dit ookal is bly ons daar weg veral as dit donker word. Lucien strand ( langs Margate) is tans baie gewild en pragtig. Uvongo was natuurlik net so gewild totdat daar so 3 jaar terug met die rivier allerhande onsuiwerhede afgekom het en in die see beland het. Aan die bokant van die Uvongo rivier het n plakkerskamp opgespring wat al hoe groter word. Daardie onsuiwer beland in die rivier en spoel tot in die see. Baie baie vakansiegangers het hier ernstige maagaandoenings opgedoen en verkeie is gehospitaliseer en andere is vroeg terug huistoe. Ongelukkig hou dit jaar na jaar aan en selfs nou met die afgelope lang naweek was die strand en lagoon weer gesluit as gevolg van e coli besmetting. Van die eens blouvlagstatus by Margate en Uvongo is daar nie meer sprake nie. Ramsgate en Southbroom en Marina is naby en het steeds blouvlagstatus. Hulle word steeds druk besoek.
Die kort van die storie is egter dat Margate "verlore" is. Wat vandag herstel word is die naweek weer afgebreek. Jammer maar dit is die feite en dit doen ons as n toerisme bestemming nie goed nie.
Ons drink uit die piering want ons koppie loop oor.

Has anybody camped recently there? Any security concerns? The park has one of the best locations.

Dit is hartseer maar baie waar wat Piet se. So lief soos wat ek is vir Margate strand dit het baie agteruit gegaan.

Are you referring to Margate Caravan Park Mawonga?

On Facebook I have heard a of a few issues lately.. I love Vicbay, especially when we camped there.. But seems like some decided to help themselves easily to your stuff over the small fence and you cant leave your van unattended.. I have not heard it from one person though, but a few.. Which is terrible as I would go there anytime given the chance....

Geert dis moeilik ja, want wie was nou vorige bestuur? Munisipaliteit? Daar was ook stories oor die bookings en hoe jy kan plek kry/verseker, maar nou ja ek wil nie verder op dit ingaan nie.. Vicbay is 'n pragtige strand met die grasperk voor die strand (amper nes salt rock by die hotel) en dis heerlik om op so grasperk voor die see te speel met die kids.. Ek sal maar my ore oop hou oor wat als daar aangaan, dalk sien Vicbay my gou gou weer..
