Fresh Mussels from Saldahna Bay


Saldahna Bay in the Western Cape is
South Africa's largest natural anchorage
and port with the deepest water.

Er ist der größte natürliche Ankerplatz
und tiefste Hafen im südlichen Afrika.

In the December holiday, we went to Saldahna Bay to pick up fresh mussels that my father-in-law had ordered from a fisherman at the harbor. Later that evening our three teenagers learned how to clean them. They then helped my mother-in-law cook them for dinner. Enjoy the photos!

Thanks! I see you like wine. I often do posts about the wine estates in our area. We live in South Africa's beautiful wine region and it's super neat. Enjoy your Club W! ;)

What a great experience for your family. I love looking at your photos. I especially love the photo of your in-laws and the traps. Not a fan of mussels, but I think it's cool that you got them fresh off the boat!
