Arniston and the Fishermen of Kassiesbaai
Sunrise in Arniston at South Africa's Overberg Coast. It's getting hectic in the little harbour. The fishermen from the village of Kassiesbaai are launching their boats. Tension on the men's faces. Will the calm weather hold? Or will a storm come up?
The quaint hamlet is a national monument. The name Kassiesbaai is Afrikaans meaning bay of the little boxes - because the thatched, whitewashed Fisherman's houses look like boxes if you see them from far.
Arniston has beautiful swimming beaches, with fine sand and turquoise blue water. In summer it's wunderful to go for a swim here. The Waenhuiskrans Nature Reserve with its huge sanddunes is ideal for long walks along the coast. Next to the fishing harbour lies the Arniston Spa Hotel - one of the best wellness venues at the Cape. The rooms have a generous lay-out. With balconies and stunning seaviews. There are also many holiday houses for rent in Arniston.
In the afternoon the fischermen return from the sea. The first incoming boat had no luck at all. No fishes. The weather was too stormy, the sea too rough. But then, on the second boat: Smiling faces. These men had better luck. The fish was caught in great deapth today. The catch of the day is mainly Red Roman. This delicious fish is sold to Cape Town. The prices for fish are good there. Red Roman will - of course - also feature on the hotel's dinner menu tonight.
After just an hour the daily event is over. Then it is getting quiet again in the little harbour of Arniston. What remains are the gentle sounds of the sea.

The Arniston Spa Hotel in Arniston at South Africa's Overberg Coast
Early morning in Arniston at South Africa's Overberg Coast. The fishermen from the village of Kassiesbaai are launching their boats. Tension on the men's faces. Will it be a good day? Will the weather hold?
Next to the fishing harbour - right at the Indian Ocean - the Arniston Spa Hotel - one of the best wellness venues at the Cape. The rooms are spacious with a generous lay-out. With balconies and stunning seaviews. The day starts with a sumptuous breakfast in the sunny conservatory.
There is a lot to see in Arniston. For instance the old village of Kassiesbaai - the bay of the little boxes - with its thatched, whitewashed Fisherman's houses. Or the beautiful swimming beaches of Arniston at the aquamarine sea. Or the huge sand dunes in the Waenhuiskrans nature reserve.
In the hotel's exclusive wellness sanctuary, professional therapists pamper the guests with beauty treatments and body therapies. There are also saunas, a Turkish steam chamber and a tranquillity lounge. The bar for lunches, snacks and drinks is open all day.
The fischermen have returned from the sea. Relief and happy faces. It's been a good day. The catch is Red Roman. This delicious fish is sold to Cape Town. And will of course feature on tonight's dinner menu, prepared to perfection in the renowned kitchen of the Arniston Hotel.
Yes, it is true what is said about the Arniston Hotel: One of the world's great Getaways.

Arniston und die Fischer von Kassiesbaai
Sonnenaufgang in Arniston an Südafrikas Overberg Küste. Hektik im Hafen. Die Fischer aus der Kassiesbaai Siedlung lassen ihre Boote zu Wasser. Spannung liegt auf den Gesichtern der Männer. Hält sich das das Wetter - oder kommt Sturm auf?
Das Fischerdorf Kassiesbaai steht unter Denkmalschutz. Der Name ist Afrikaans und bedeutet Kästchenbucht, denn vom Meer aus betrachtet sehen die reetgedeckten, weiß getünchten Fischerhäuschen wie Kästchen aus.
Arniston hat schöne, feinsandige Strände und türkisblaues Wasser. Im Sommer kann man wunderbar baden und schwimmen. Im Waenhuiskrans Naturreservat mit seinen riesigen Sanddünen kann man herrlich an der reizvollen Küste entlang wandern.
Gleich neben dem Fischerhafen liegt das Arniston Spa Hotel - eines der schönsten Wellness Häuser am Kap. Die Zimmer sind großzügig geschnitten. Mit Balkonen und herrlichem Meerblick. Außerdem gibt es im Ort zahlreiche Ferienhäuser zu mieten.
Am Nachmittag kehren die Fischer vom Fang zurück. Das erste Boot hatte kein Glück. Nicht ein einziger Fisch ging an den Haken, denn die Winde draußen waren stürmisch und das Meer sehr rauh. Doch dann auf dem nächsten Boot zufriedene Gesichter. Diese Männer hatten mehr Glück. Sie fischten in größerer Tiefe. Vor allem Red Roman wurde heute gefangen. Der wohlschmeckende Speisefisch wird nach Kapstadt verkauft. Die Preise sind gut dort. Natürlich steht der Fisch am Abend auch auf der Speisekarte des Hotels.
Kaum eine Stunde dauert das tägliche Ereignis. Dann wird es wieder still im kleinen Hafen von Arniston. Es bleibt nur das sanfte Rauschen des Indischen Ozeans.

FISHERMEN AT ARNISTON
This short film was taken at the fishing village of Arniston close to the southern tip of South Africa in 2000. It shows the small craft coming in from the sea, pulling the boats from the water and unloading the fish which appears to be quite a community affair.

This Easter we set off to a town neither of us had visited, also known at Waenhuiskrans.
A small seaside village with no supermarkets, few restaurants but the most beautiful ocean and scenery. We found the cave, rode through the fishing village and swam in the strangely warm water.

Weekend to Kassiesbaai Cottage in Arniston without the kids. This cottage is not completely child friendly mainly because of the steep cliff by the stoep, which by the way offers breathtaking view over the ocean. We where lucky enough to see ample Southern Right Whales with their calves. The owner of this Cottage is the Headmaster of the Local School and been a resident for the last 22 years. Great Host and Fine Cottage. What would have made this the perfect Cottage would be if the Braai/Stoep unit was unified with the cottage. Having to lock up between the two units are somewhat of a nuisance but no matter as soon as you find yourself on the stoep again you tend to forget about everything :)
