Reviews of Bhanga NekGood
Morning Jenny Well,
actually it is not really a good morning as I am back at work
today… What
an excited, awesome and wonderful time we had at Bhanga, it was so awesome, wish
I could stay there for ever. On our way there we accidently took a wrong turn
off and ended up by Potgieter, but he quickly put us on the right track again.
When we arrived at Bhanga, immediately someone came and assisted us, we got
Peter as our camp guy, cleaning the camp and washing the dishes and chasing the
monkeys away. This is the guy that is cross eyed, I can definitely recommend
him. Then we heard that baardman was involved in a car accident and could not
assist us with the fishing, but then we got “ freeman” who assisted us, I can
also recommend him to be used by future visitors. We
went on a turtle tour, led by “Wonder”, also very professional, but what a walk
on the beach, at least 5km, but it was worth our while, we got to see 3 turtles
laying eggs. The
fish didn’t want to bite, as a whale stranded down south where we were not
allowed to fish, thus all the fish were feeding from the dead whale, but we
managed to catch 6 fish, 3 striped grunters, 1 rainbow fish, and 2
Pompano’s(Wave Garrick’s) We
also visited God Knows tuck shop and supported them by having a few ice cold
lagers and having a chat to the owner and other community
members. We
were also entertained with a Zulu dance by a few children, and then had to dance
with them. We
also communicated with the other community members, my nephew can speak Zulu and
therefore we could build a nice relation with all the local
community. The
weather was also good, except 1 day that we had rain, so we decided to go to
town and did some shopping. We
were unfortunately only 2 people as the other 2 pulled out 2 days before our
departure due to unforeseen circumstances, but still we enjoyed it very, very
much. Bhanga
Nek will definitely be highly recommended by me. Thanks Eduard
