Park Rynie

Park Rynie is a small resort Town on the South Coast of Natal in South Africa. It was established in 1857 and possibly named after Renetta (nicknamed Rynie) Hoets, wife of one of the John Phillip Hoffman, partner in the firm Nosworthy & Co. that bought the original farm for development.



This was where my Grandparents stayed and was one of my favorite places to go and visit. One because of its amazing beaches and the other because of the spoils you would always get fromn your Gran.

I have amazing memories of this place growing up. They have an amazing rock pool there and we spent many hours walking along the beaches and collecting shells for decorating my Grans pot plants.
The walks were always a huge adventure and we always came away with the most wonderful memories.

There is the rocky bay camping and resorts near by where you would make new friends every year from all the tourist that would come camp there. We would go swim and play squash there alot and spend hours getting up to no good with the residents.

You can do so much here but the biggest draw card is Shark Cage diving which has brought in alot of tourism. #sharkcagediving.

This is a rustic town where you could spend a month doing nothing and be very happy. #mustsee

Titties Baai

Now this little treasure we found later in life and also the start of our camping ventures as a family. This is still one of my favorite camping sites to go to. It is very basic as in no electricity. The best part about it is that you can still find a site that is right close to the waters edge. If you like place with very few people and can get leave out of season this is the place to go. The camp site is in Paternoster in the Western Cape on the West Coast. The village of Paternoster is a small fishing village with their main income source is crayfish. This is also good for visitors and campers as you are allow to dive out 4 crayfish in season if you have a license.  So when camping here you can dive crayfish out right in front of your campsite and have a braai of fresh seafood in minutes of catching these delicious creatures. The place is almost completely empty out of season but does get very full in season. I prefer to not camp at the main campsite but away to the rig...

From the time you arrive you feel like you are at one of the best hotels in the world. The staff are super professional and the food which is all inclusive is next level. The lodge is set in a mountain range which on arrival seems very remote. Well it is nothing but amazing we were blown away by the amazing architecture of the buildings that blend into the area. Our room or should i say 3 bedroom house was huge and next level comfort. 3 rooms all with on suite bathrooms and all has amazing views over this mountainous range.
