The Gonubie beachfront Boardwalk at night

This very short video shows what the Gonubie boardwalk looks like at night. Lots of little miggies flying around the light drew our attention too. Put your speakers on. Gonubie is an awesome Eastern Cape coastal holiday destination - and the locals of East London love it too. The Gonubie boardwalk stretches along the ocean's edge from the carpark near the Gonubie Hotel all the way to the beach near the Gonubie River mouth.

The huge slide at the Gonubie Agricultural Show in East London

That's a pretty big slide.  I wonder how fast the kids would slide down if they poured some water and soap onto this slide?  Wheeeeeeeee!  That's Basti at the bottom of the slide, having just climbed up those steps to the right of the slide.  He said there was one step that was a little faulty and one could see down to the ground.  Hm, this slide is not for me, and definitely not for Tony.  Too high!

A picture of the swings at the Gonubie Show, and a picture of the bubble balls one climbs inside

Being inside a big plastic bubble ball at the Gonubie Agricultural Show

Basti had loads of fun in these huge big plastic bubble balls.  The fun see-through plastic balls were just one of the many attractions for children at the recent Gonubie Agricultural Show in East London - some adults enjoyed the rides too! 

Two more photos and the whole story of our visit to the Gonubie Agricultural Show.

Water boys in Gonubie in Gonubie River

Gonubie river, about two or three hundred metres from the river mouth, somewhere during high tide and low tide, there is an island thing, separated from the shore by a 7 metre wide channel. The water in the channel is, at that stage of the tide, less than a metre deep, and is a great place for kids to play semi-safely.

Kids floating in the ocean

The boys enjoying a trip to the beach, and floating in the ocean near Gonubie, during the East London summer school holidays. We had our dog Gilly the jack russell with us, so we stayed away from the main Gonubie beach, but the boys still had fun at this rocky beach.
