The Maitland River Mouth must have one of the nicest unspoilt beaches in the country. This is a view looking toward the coastal suburb of Blue Horizon Bay, taken yesterday evening with oyster catchers feeding in the foreground.
Judging from the signage at the parking lot this is about to change with some planned development. There are some places along our coastline that would be better served by leaving them unspoilt by development – this is one of them.
It looks so serene. I can feel the cool evening air on my skin, the sea breeze on my face, the salty ocean smell, the sand between my toes, the sound of the waves and the birds calling, the sight of the sun setting, the sqeeze of a loved one’s hand and all my stresses and tiredness flowing out of me. And its only a couple of kilometres down the road. This picture has lots of feeling.

Douple comment again. I’m sorry.
So very…very…beautiful!! Perfect!
Yes it definately should be left unspoilt.We were at Van Stadens mouth in August. Breathtakingly beautiful.Could we please have some shots there of the dune and surroundings to show my friends and family, I dont think they beleive me when I tell them how fantastic it is.PSLove the site and never miss my daily dose of PE.
Sometimes your photos make me tear up with “homesickness”–this is one of those times…Diane
Oh what a wonderful shot!! The first time I went out to Blue Horizon Bay, probably about 10 years ago, I said that’s where I want to live. It’s the best kept secret in South Africa.The shot reminds me of one of my own, taken at Keurboomstrand in Feb, with the same sort of mistiness and golden light.
What a beautiful picture! The light is amazing.
