History of Grotto Bay

This is the area between Koeberg Private Nature Reserve and Yzerfontein.The Coastal Reserve is part of the far larger Cape West Coast Biosphere Reserve, that has been proclaimed by UNESCO. This aims to ensure that any development remains ecologically sustainable. Also, the landscape is conserved for future generations.. The area is covered in wildflowers in spring.
Fynbos and stretches of strandveld are home to a vast array of birds and other animals, including tortoises, steenbok, and duiker, and there is also an African Black Oystercatcher Conservation and Breeding programme in place.

Grotto Bay’s history is marked by its early use as a fishing and farming area. The name “Grotto Bay” reflects the natural grottoes or caves found along the coastline. The region has long attracted people for its natural resources and scenic beauty,
