The Wonder of the West Coast

22 Mar 2023

The wild, the water, the flock, the accommodation, the wonder of the West Coast! CapeNature and Wesgro welcome you to explore the West Coast. Holistically, the West Coast has every right to be boastful, especially when one of CapeNature’s reserves, Bird Island, has a near-sight view of the Cape Gannet in its natural habitat. Explore the museum on site, an informative movie room displaying information about the reserve and all its beautiful creations within.
