We were somewhat relieved to get out of the desert and into town. We settled into the Oyster Box Hotel on the waterfront, recommended by my friend Jeff. Not in the same league as our Umhlanga namesake hotel, but very comfortable.

Our first priority was to find somewhere to watch the Kiwi test rugby the next evening, and secondly to confirm our tour for the next day. The Mola Mola Safaris office was on the waterfront, a pub with a TV next door to the one side, and the Anchor restaurant on the other side.  What a win!!

We upgraded to an all-day tour featuring kayaking with the seals at Pelican Point followed by an oyster and champagne lunch on the beach, and then a 4x4 trip to Sandwich Harbour. Then we booked for dinner at the Anchor for that evening.
