This is such a striking photo by Bertus Preller – we thought we will share it for everyone who already miss Stilbaai…
The photographer (@bertus_preller) posted the photo with these words:
The more often we see the things around us – even the beautiful and wonderful things – the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds – even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.

Iemand wat jy ken het ‘n oupa en ouma in Stilbaai…
This is such a sweet photo – and showing that age is just a number.
Look after your parents and grandparents – and enjoy the time spent together… – in Stilbaai

To feed Stilbaai’s special ‘inhabitants’, the eels that have been living at the Palinggat Homestead in the freshwater pond for more than two decades, is quite a unique activity when in Stilbaai.
The Palinggat Homestead is also a historical building and it is here where Stilbaai Tourism / Information Centre is situated. Here you will find the Archaeological Museum; the school museum; the Country Shop and the Thyme to Relish Restaurant as well as lots of information.
The eels are being fed every day at 11:00 (excluding Sundays) and visitors can join in the experience for a small fee.
16 October 2019 – Two months to go to the summer holiday when families and visitors from all over the world flock to the quiet town of Stilbaai. With an estimate of between 40 000 and 60 000 visitors during December, one can just imagine how busy it can be – from the beaches to the streets to restaurants and shops. It is however always nice to see so many happy people enjoying everything Stilbaai – and Jongensfontein – has to offer. www.mystilbaai.co.za and the Stilbaai App (download it for free on your mobile device) will keep everyone updated with information and news about activities and events and lots more.
