THE MOUNTAIN PASS YOU SHOULDN’T MISS Situated on the historic mountain pass between Constantia Valley and Hout Bay, Harbour House at Constantia Nek enjoys a stunning visual setting. The restaurant space overlooks a small, manicured garden that rolls down the hill to the open vista of the entire Cape Flats, the Constantia Valley with its’ centuries old vineyards and False Bay framed by the Hottentots-Holland Mountains that embraces the Stellenbosch Wine region at their foot. This is all a backdrop to a fine dining restaurant that was recently refurbished and joined by the stellar, award winning Chef Dylan Laity, previously from the Roundhouse in Camps Bay. You can expect modern South African cuisine with definite influences from Dylan’s travels abroad. There is a good mix of seafood, vegetarian, vegan and meat courses and
the owners are determined to use only the best and most seasonal produce that can be sourced. The menu is designed to serve bold flavour marriages but always a grounded approach to cuisine and often some interesting South African twists - some of the signatures that have already made it onto the launch menu include the likes of Mozambique Langoustines with amasi, kimchi and smoked trout roe and Rare Karan Beef Sirloin seasoned with Rooikrans Coal Oil and fermented chillies. The Restaurant @ The Nek is open from 12:00-16:00 and 18:00-22:00 every day and is en-route the City Sightseeing Blue Peninsula Tour. This makes the restaurant a great option for a leisurely, indulging stop for visitors to the region. A time to soak up the beauty of both the surrounds and the interpretation it gets on your plate. Booking is highly advised, especially during the high season.

PRESENTS
FOR THE LOVE OF TRANCE While on a trip to India, Grant Dreyer, the founder of this renowned outdoor festival experienced something mind blowing that would change the South African outdoor party scene forever. 50 different nationalities, all different religions, partying together to one beat and this inspired him to bring it home to the rainbow nation. In 1994, the first party was hosted, and so Vortex was born…. Described by Grant as “Bohemian Philosophy”, trance is about living freely and open-mindedly, and acknowledges that that there is a connection between us all. We are all exactly the same, we face the same day-to-day issues but it encourages us to work together as one to overcome and live outside of these problems. Each year, two festivals are held that tie in as closely as possible with the Winter and Summer solstices, Open Source Festival in December and the Phoenix Festival of Fire in June. 2018 Vortex Open Source for the first time in 24 years probably has the best line-up ever done! 120 ARTISTS from all over Mother Earth, with 11 international guest artists spread across three music arenas. The full 5-day festival consists of much more than just music. It also includes Yoga Ravi Sanctuary & Holistic workshops, transformational talks, art exhibitions, fire & LED performers and much more, with a variety of food vendors on site to cater to everyone’s needs. Vortex Open Source will take place from the 13 TO 17 DECEMBER at Circle Of Dreams, RIVIERSONDEREND. Festival tickets can be booked online via QUICKET, with limited tickets available at the gate.

ENROUTE TO INVERDOORN The trip to Inverdoorn is one of the most interesting and thrilling sightseeing routes within the Western Cape. 2.5 hour en route to the lodge, guests can stop at various wine farms to sample some of the best wines within the region. There are a variety of food stalls that travellers can enjoy and stock up on, such as cheeses and olives. For those not interested in the self-drive option, the Cape Town office can arrange transfers to and from the city. CHEETAH RESCUE AND REHABILITATION The Cheetah is one of the great animals that Inverdoorn has rescued and returned to the region. With less than 10 000 cheetahs left in the world today, conservation initiatives such as Western Cape Cheetah Conservation (WCCC), pioneered their way forward for cheetah survival. At cheetah interactions guests can meet and learn more about the tamed cheetahs at the reserve. For those booking five-star accommodation options, the interactions are automatically included. There is also the opportunity to go cheetah tracking with the handlers, see the wild ones during a safari and watch cheetah runs after sunset safaris. The privilege of seeing a cheetah reach speeds of up to 120km/h will be unlike anything you have experienced before. THE BIG FIVE SAFARI The Klein Karoo was once filled with members of the big five and other native wildlife. However, they were virtually wiped out due to settlement and agricultural development. Inverdoorn played a significant ecological role in South Africa by re-introducing endemic species to the region. The lions and elephants seen on safari and the calves residing in the rhino orphanage are all Big 5 members that have been rescued by the team at Inverdoorn. IZIBA SAFARI LODGE The accommodation at Inverdoorn caters for all taste and budgets. For families or larger groups, opting for the guest house accommodation is ideal. The rest of the lodge is comprised of seven, Tankwa Chalets. Five, five-star luxury chalets and one luxurious five-star Ambassador suite. Guests can make themselves comfortable relaxing nearby the succulent garden, lounge area or by the pool. Additionally, the safari lodge has two bars and two bomas, perfect for nights under the stars reminiscing about your safari highlights, or gathering around a blazing fire during cold winter nights.

hout bay seal colony There are 35 species of seals in the world. Duiker Island is the habitat for the Cape Fur Seal. It is also a bird sanctuary, home to thousands of seals and many birds such as the Cape Cormorant, the Bank Cormorants, Black Back Gulls, Kelp Gulls and Hartlaub Gulls. It is illegal to go onto the island. The majority of the seals on Duiker Island are young males waiting out their time until they reach the right breeding age, which is between the ages of 8 to 12 years depending on their size. Duiker Island is not a breeding colony as the sea can get very rough and the pups get swept off. The island is most densely populated from January through March due to the seals moulting. During this period they do not go off in search of food but rely on fats they have stored in their blubber. Breeding is a continuous cycle and takes place in November/December in breeding colonies around the coastline of South Africa and Namibia. After fertilization there is a dormant period of 4 months and thereafter development continues, making the active gestation period 8 months. The pups are then born in late November early December. They grow quickly and start to swim at 6 weeks old. By about 7 months they can spend 2-3 days at sea on their own and can already swim long distances. It has been noted that tagged seals have swum from Cape Town to Cape Cross in Namibia, a distance of 1600 kms at the age of 8 months. Seal at Hout Bay harbour
The Cape Fur Seal dives to a depth of 36m on average but diving abilities varies between species. Their ears and nostrils close tightly when they dive, and being mammals, they cannot breathe under water. Even while sleeping in the water they have to surface to breathe, every 10-15 minutes for young ones and 30 minutes for the adults. GOOD TO KNOW Cape fur seals are endemic to Southern Africa.
Duiker Island
They are found as far north as the southern tip of Angola, with colonies occurring all along the coastlines of Namibia and South Africa, up to Algoa Bay near Port Elizabeth. POPULATION SIZE According to the most recent estimations, roughly 2 million Cape fur seals reside in this range. Living in large colonies, the vast majority have settled along the pristine and wild beaches of southern Namibia as well as on islands just off the West Coast of South Africa. Since they are not nearly as agile on land as they are in the water, these secluded locations offer protection from human interference, land-based predators and habitat destruction. SIZE Once they’ve reached adulthood, males are normally much larger than females, weighing up to 350kg. Females typically weigh in at around 80kg, but can grow up to 150kg.
Seal snorkeling
Mating: Within colonies you will find that males who have reached sexual maturity will gather a harem of females. Depending on the size of the colony, these harems can be as large as 50+ females at a time. DELAYED PUPS! Females are able to delay fertilisation for up to three months, in order to ensure that they will only give birth to pups at the beginning of summer – normally late November/early December. These pups are born without blubber and are unable to swim, making them highly dependent on their mothers for nutrition and protection. FOOD While pups are suckled for the first few weeks of their lives, they eventually have to join their parents and older siblings in the hunt for food. Cape fur seals are traditionally most fond of pilchards and anchovies. However, since the numbers of

Hello Cape Town December 2018
these fish have been dwindling, mostly due to overfishing, seals have had to look for alternative sources of food. Fortunately they are rather opportunistic and highly adaptable, happily snacking on anything from crayfish and shrimps to seagulls and penguins. TRUE SEALS? The seal family tree includes three main groups: true seals, fur seals and sea lions. There are a couple of differences between fur seals and true seals. Firstly, fur seals have cute little ears on the sides of their heads, while true seals have no external ears. Fur seals also have larger front flippers, which they use to propel themselves through the water, unlike true seals who motor along using their back flippers. There are nine species of fur seal, of which the Cape Fur Seal is most closely related to the Australian FUR SEAL Eyesight: While Cape fur seals seem to have tiny eyes on land, they pop wide open under water, taking on something of a torch-like look. With the ability to dive to a depth of up to 200m, their intensely-developed eyes help them to see in even the murkiest conditions.
Cape Town is one of the most spectacular places in the world to paraglide. LION’S HEAD and SIGNAL HILL are the only sites that we fly from because of their location and the stunning views of Table Mountain and the Cape Town area. There are many other flying sites nearby, including, Sir Lowry’s Pass (just past Somerset West), Franschoek and Hermanus. Tandem paragliding instructional flights are a great way of getting into paragliding or just experiencing the joy of freeflight. Flights last anything from 5 - 30mins. *No Experience Required*
FUR COATS Fur seals are so called, because they have two thick layers of fur – a soft inner layer and a more bristly outer layer. Along with a layer of blubber on the inside of their skins, this fur helps keep them warm in the freezing water they like to fish and play in. Sadly, this has also made them the target of much violence, as seal fur coats were a sought-after fashion item not too many decades ago. Fortunately, fur has become a huge taboo in the fashion industry and sealhunting is now illegal in most countries. Namibia, however, is one of the culprits who has continued the killing (mostly of pups) under the guise of culling. There are a few boat operators in the Hout Bay harbour that offers a 40 minute cruise to Duiker Island. The more adventurous ones can plunge into the cold ocean water and dive or snorkel with the seals with one of the dedicated operators.

winelands aesthetics Dr JJ Huskisson Your age does not define you; you define your age. At Winelands Medical and Aesthetic Dr Joseph J. Huskisson (Aesthetic and General Practitioner, MB ChB Stell 1990) can make you look as young on the outside as you feel on the inside. Dr Huskisson’s luxuriously upmarket practice in Stellenbosch Square has been making dreams come true since 2006. His professional, discreet team offer a relaxing atmosphere where individual attention is ensured and enjoyed by all. Dr Huskisson has established a strong client base through his thorough and personal approach to every patient. After graduating from the University of Stellenbosch, Dr Huskisson went on to practice medicine in Somerset West and the Strand. It was after his relocation to the United Kingdom, where he became a member of the Joint Committee of General Practitioners; that he made his post-graduate transition from pure medicine to aesthetics. He has set a high standard in aesthetics and thus provides training to medical practitioners in Botox and Dermal Fillers. Dr Huskisson has been acknowledged as a front- runner in his field by being one of 13 specialist doctors from South Africa who gets invited to Monaco each year for an all expenses paid trip to the World Aesthetics and Medicines Congress.
Thread Lifts; Lifting / Contouring / Volumizing / Stimulates collagen production
In his spare time, Dr Huskisson enjoys painting and other forms of art. It is this creative edge that enables him to achieve such amazing results. These results can be seen when he provides a Liquid Facelift for a client; where more enduring fillers are used to lift and improve sagging of the face, contour profiles, create shadows and highlights, and delicately adjust the shape of the face. Dr Huskisson’s art can also be seen on the body when he sculpts the body using a revolutionary LipoLaser treatment that offers Laser-assisted Liposuction. This unique, non- aggressive procedure has been offered at Winelands since 2010.

the luxury in recycling Carrol Boyes Functional Art, one of South Africa’s exemplary brands that combines innovative, nature inspired design and local labour, has gone a step further
SHOP BAG FELT - radiant - grey
in its’ environmental and social responsibilities when recently collaborating with The Joinery. The Joinery, a young brand that prides itself in an ethical approach to design and manufacturing, took upon themselves to create something beautiful from plastic waste, mainly drinking bottles that are thrown away by millions each month. Their focus is on finding solutions to environmental and community issues through design. The increased awareness and proactive spirit among businesses and private citizens to create longevity - pieces that are kept and treasured rather than
POUCH FELT - knowing - charcoal
relegated to trash after a short lifespan brought those two forces together. Meeting all luxury brands ethos of creating timeless, sustainable products the two created POUCH FELT - knowing - grey
a range of felt tote bags and pouches. All the products are made by local artisans and sewing co-operatives based in and around informal settlements in Cape Town – and as such its initiatives contribute directly to job creation and furthering innovation in the textile economy, turning potential waste into something positive.
SHOP BAG FELT - radiant - charcoal
This collectable range of bags, each handmade tote and pouch, is made from recycled plastic bottles otherwise destined for the landfill. A total of 7 000 bottles was used for the creation of 1 000 totes and 1 000 pouch bags for the Carrol Boyes and The Joinery collaboration. The decorative multipurpose tote is perfect for everyday use – for daily grocery shopping, on-board plane travel, to transport or for beach days. The pouch is ideal for small makeup or stationery items, or to keep chargers safe. Initiatives such as these, where sustainability and community
involvement
can
be
combined,
underpinned by a spirit of collaboration, emphasise the pioneering and big picture the Carrol Boyes ethos represents. Bags and pouches are available from Carrol Boyes stores and online at www.carrolboyes.com
