Grab your mates and get to the beaches this December for a killer season of Touchies. There are 7 opportunities to sweat it out and own the beach this year. The first leg kicks off on the 13th of December at the Mother City’s most glamorous beach, Camps Bay (or is it Clifton 4th?). Eish, it’s going to sizzle!
Tournament Dates:
13 December - Camps Bay
16 December - Strand
21 December - Hermanus (Onrus Strand)
23 December - Struisbaai
26 December - Stilbaai
29 December - Mossel Bay (Diaz Strand)
31 December - Hartenbos
Hermanus is one of the best whale watching spots in the country. It even has its own Whale Crier, who announces the sighting of whales with a blow of his kelp horn, calling everyone in the town to come watch these majestic animals of the ocean frolick in the water.
The Old Harbour Museum is another landmark of the town, which has an outside display of an old sea wall, old fishing boats and reconstructed stone fishing huts. The inside display is of anything used for fishing in the early days and aquarium displays of locally caught specimens. Another attraction of a different kind is Great White Shark Diving - from a close distance, in a safe environment, if that makes you feel any better. This is one of the few places in the country where you can experience these predators in their natural environment without being the hunted!! But if this is not for you, then viewing from the surface is also an experience as sharks are surface feeders and are very happy to perform for your amusement.
An important date to remember is the 26th December - Stilbaai's 30th Anniversary. “What?” you say. Yes, this year will see the 30th Touch Rugby Tournament being held on this notorious beach front. This year the Hot Summer of Touch is going to be massive.
