    Shoot what exactly? Addo is nice if you want some animals and landscape I would imagine somewhere like Colchester cold be quite nice, and Summerstrand and Humewood for beaches.

    Arg, what do I know.. haha

    edit: I'm sure bwana will be able to help you out

    Yea I guess I was being a bit vague but, outdoors, so landscape, animals, macro, buildings, anything away from home? Preferably something without an entrance fee unless it's like R10 or R20 bucks hopefully you get what im trying to say.

    Plenty of things. There's the lighthouse at Cape Recife Nature Reserve - keep meaning to get there myself , Sardinia Bay, the dunes and mines at Maitlands. Sea View lion park and the reserve at Kragga Kamma.

    Cool thanks for the input so far, have already spotted a few that I didn't even know about! @mickeyD, thanks that's a load of places I look forward to the rest. I guess the point of this thread is to try find unknown spots, rather than the addo etc!

    Thanks once again look forward to seeing a couple more responses!

    Pleasure... did not think you would want the "normal" spots - beachfront, Boardwalk, Pier, etc.

    Have a look at Facebook, there's at least one PE centric group, whose name escapes me right now, that's pretty active.

    Kind of like the ones we have in Summerstrand right now....

    I must admit, even with PE being called the windy city, they have nooooooo idea what wind is. Try Wellington now there is a windy place for you.
