A Reminder of the Book on Betty’s Bay!

Posted on 29 Jun, 2025

Last month we included the great news that work was underway on a high quality coffee table book, dedicated to our breathtakingly beautiful coastal town.

 

The good news is that the editorial team have already received many fascinating stories and photographs.

 

These cover topics such as:

  • The town’s rich history and geography
  • Its diverse fauna and flora
  • Governance structures
  • Nature reserves, the Harold Porter National Botanical Gardens, scenic walks, and must-see places of interest
  • The historic whaling station and intriguing shipwrecks
  • Stories of pioneering families since the 1920s and of vibrant community life
  • Voices from different residential areas
  • Local highlights like the Stony Point penguin colony, the Marine Protected Area, the Art Route and much more

 

The plan is to print 500 copies of this coffee table book at the reasonable price of R500 per copy.
