I ♥ Mossel Bay

Hi, I’m  Petra du Toit from Linkside2 Guest House in Mossel Bay in the Garden Route.
MOSSEL BAY IS BEST KNOWN FOR its mod­er­ate cli­mate, beau­ti­ful white beaches and the Dias Museum.

GET YOUR PICTURE TAKEN AT the Post office Tree, because of its his­tor­ical Value and you can still mail your post­cards from there.
THE BEST SUNRISE PICTURES CAN BE TAKEN AT The Point early in the morn­ing, breath­tak­ingly beau­ti­ful!!!
OTHER HAPPY SNAPS AT Linkside2 with the most beau­ti­ful view of the bay, moun­tains and the town ...

WHEN THE WEATHER'S BAD, I LIKE TO shop at Langeberg Mall ... Continued
