Restaurants in The Whale Coast

Fish Stew by Candlelight

One of the most authentic experiences in the Overberg has to be dining in the heart of the Kassiesbaai community. On a prearranged night, you can delight in pan-fried fish, caught by the local fishermen, and green bean stew, prepared by their wives, and served by candlelight in one of the century-old fishing cottages. The meal costs R120 per person; to book, call Lillian Newman (tel. 028/445-9760 or 073/590-2027), a resident of Kassiesbaai who can also arrange for a guided tour.
