Trip to Melilla

It's possible to get a ferry to Melilla, a Spanish enclave on the coast of North Africa, which makes for a really fun overnight trip. Lovely to look round and see a slightly different side of life, plus you can say you've been to africa!!

Lesedi Cultural Village

posted by wmackendoerfer on 20 September 2010 at 11:47

This is a great one-stop-shop for getting some culture. The village is geared towards the education of tourists and combines culture from several different parts of south africa. We stayed the night and really immersed ourselves in the events which was great, and the dance was amazing.

Here, you can have the unique experience of swimming with the Jackass (African) penguin. You'll find the main penguin colony at Foxy Beach next to the swimming beach where there is an attractive boardwalk. The friendly Park staff will be happy to answer any questions. This is a very cool place if you love animal life!
