Massive waves in Ballito
Over the weekend of 16/17 September 2023 the South African coast was hit with what were the largest waves in the world at the time.
Along with spring tides, this caused serious damage in some parts of the country. Here we see a short clip just after high tide at high rock & Thompson's Bay on the Dolphin Coast.

Diving T-Wreck
Переглядів 796 років тому
Unfortunately the visibility wasn't amazing (quite common in Durban), however it was a magical dive anyway. About Number 1: This area of reef derives its name from fisherman who consider this the No.1 fishing spot of Durban. No.1 is situated approximately 5km out to sea. Whereas this reef is extensive, most of the diving takes place to the South of the Bell Buoy that demarcates the shipping lan...

April 2018 dive on T-Barge, Durban, South Africa.
Переглядів 4156 років тому
The T-Barge was originally a T-shaped barge with three cranes and it was sunk for an artificial reef in 1990. She is one of three artificial reefs that were created in order to enhance recreational fishing off the KwaZulu-Natal coast. It boasts a multitude of Cauliflower corals, Crayfish and Goldies. On the sand, one often finds large Rays and Guitarfish. The wreck is home to the Harlequin Gold...

    That was some serious work that! I drove passed the exit this month and it looked like no one had driven it at all! When did you guys do it? How long to it take. But I bet you enjoyed your Maluti’s at the Duck & Donkey😜

      Yup, it was hectic! We did it in March 2022. It took us 19 hours to get through the 21 odd km. It was an absolute blast, as we're the cold beers. 😁

    This could have been a great video, but unfortunately it is utterly spoiled by the addition of that awful music. It would have been much better if you had just left it with the original recorded sound.

      I guess that’s a personal opinion. I for one would not want to sit and edit over 1000 files to make a half hour video, then ad commentary and choose which audio clips to use and which to dub. These clips are merely to show anyone who wants to go, the conditions we faced and what they would be up against.
