Mosselbaai

Mossel Bay

Mossel Bay (in Afrikaans - Mosselbaai) is a small beach side town on the Garden Route. The fishing village is becoming popular with tourists as a destination to stop on the drive. The name Mosselbaai literally means "Bay of Mussels. However the mussels of the bay are now unfortunately mostly gone.

Stopping here on the drive after taking a long time to reach this point from Kroonstad in one day it was a nice place to stretch ones legs,and discovered a variety of cool trinket/gift shops along the main street.

The town at a great point for a stopover if you wish to take a look around, located halfway between Capetown and Port Elizabeth.

As pretty as a picture, I only wish my camera had been working to get some pics of this lovely little quaint village... But take my word for it... it is definately worth a stopover visit.
