What a treat, sailing off the Knysna Coastline, and after an incredible sail on a very flat Ocean we encountered an awesome sight, there were Brydes Whales, Dolphin, Gannets, and loads of Hammerhead Sharks, a feeding frenzy.  Common Dolphins broke away from the pod and joined the Yacht ?bow riding?.  Watching them swim so gracefully & effortlessly along with the yacht, makes you want to dive in and swim with them.  The Gannets diving after the plentiful fish, added to the spectacular moment; Dutch Guests onboard were treated with an all in one sighting that topped an already magnificent day of sailing on the Indian Ocean. 
This is what makes the awesome town of Knysna so special, you have these incredibly hot days, great wind, a beautiful estuary, the spectacular coastline and these spectacular creatures are the cherry on the top.

This is the time to be here, because Mother Nature is flirting with all our visitors. 

Wish you were here.!
