Birding in Fish Hoek from Seaside Cottages
Birding in Fish Hoek is a feathery and musical thing. Stay at Seaside Cottages and revel in the vibrant sounds of birdsong filling the air in spring as diverse bird species emerge from their winter hiding places or arrive on their migratory routes from across the globe.
Fish Hoek is home to fantastic and diverse habitats for a vast selection of incredible bird species – ocean birds, rocky shore birds, dune and mountain birds, wetland and riverine species. Fynbos birds and birds of prey join garden birds and waterbirds to forage and sing all year round.

Fish Hoek History in the Limelight
The history of fascinating Fish Hoek reads like a fantastic drama! The new Fish Hoek history exhibit at Valyland reveals the quaint historical timeline that makes this town so charming to tourists and locals alike.
It all began hundreds of years ago when the Portuguese first threw anchor in Cape Town. By the late 1700s, fishing was a central industry and people were travelling to the Southern Peninsula to fish, swim and live.
September is Heritage Month, a time to remember our national heritage in terms of culture, history, environment and more! What are you grateful for in South Africa?
