It took me less than a thought to except an invitation to an unforgettable adventure along the most beautiful coastline of South Africa. The Otter trail’s scenery is endless and no camera can capture the true experience and beauty. We spend our pre-otter night at the Wild Tongue Backpackers, a lovely spot in the woods, only a few kilometres from the finish and a safe place to leave your car. We were blessed with good weather, which does not rule out the rain we also enjoyed. By the end of the walk, we could make a tick next to numerous sightings; dolphins, whales, otters, bokkies, miskeljaatkat, snake, you name it.
A great deal of the experience, is actually experiencing it, whilst not knowing what to expect. I think therefore one should not leave too much advice to the next otter adventurer. One point that should not cause any harm: Though we had to carry heavy backpacks, we ate like kings with steak on the menu, not less than three times, along with fresh roosterkoeke en boererwors, black mussels fresh from the ocean, Port from Beaumont, Whiskey from Johnny, and so we walked on.
