Crystal Pools is open again. 🌊
The trail past Gordon’s Bay reopened on 1 November and runs until the end of April. Take a short drive along the R44, then head about an hour through fynbos up the Steenbras gorge to the first rock pool. Cold, clear and worth every step.
Permits are limited to around 50 people a day, so book yours ahead with Steenbras Nature Reserve.
Then come back to La Dolce Vita—shower, patio, feet up.
