A history of the

greater Nahoon area your chance to get on board Do you live, work or play in Nahoon? If you do, you may not be aware that this seemingly tranquil suburb has a turbulent and quirky history. It was once the frontier between colonial East London and the Xhosa – in 1878 pitched battles were fought in the Nahoon bush and the settlers went into panic mode at New Year when it was rumoured that the Xhosa were about to march along the beach to attack on the city and seize the gunpowder stores. How did the unusual name come about – the jury is still out but there are some interesting theories. As early as the late 1800s, Nahoon was such a popular campsite that services like a temporary post office, police station and even grocery deliveries were to be had. The area once boasted a dodgy saloon style hotel that achieved notoriety at the turn of the century due to a notorious family murder in which a young French adventurer played a deadly role. The famous Dolphin Hotel came into being because of municipal red tape – it was planned as flats and a tearoom. Three Nahoon residents, masquerading as a campaign, managed to defeat a proposal for a bridge over the Nahoon River mouth in the early eighties. If you are interested in these littleknown stories and other ideas in which Nahoon became to symbolise fun and a sense of place in otherwise difficult social and political circumstances, you should make sure to pre-order a copy of Fighting and Fun at Nahoon. This locally written and published book will appear in limited editions available mainly to the people and businesses of Nahoon. Author Glenn Hollands is a Nahoon local and has previously published The Reef - A Legacy of Surfing in East London. It will make a very unusual corporate gift, an ideal local interest book for guest houses and an excellent Christmas present.

Fighting and Fun at Nahoon may be pre-ordered through Glenn Hollands – glenhol@telkomsa.net. The cost of the book is R200. Pre-ordering will ensure that final production stage of this unique book on local history. 18

Diving in East London and the Border Undersea Club

The magic of

ontrary to popular belief, scuba diving is thriving in East London. The Border Undersea Club was established in 1953, which ranks it as the third oldest dive club in the country.

The clubhouse is situated at the Orient Complex, overlooking the pools and the beach. The club has easy access to the sea, ensuring easy and safe boat launches. A hot shower and a bacon and egg breakfast after a morning dive probably makes the Border Undersea Club one of the best dive club facilities in the country. The clubhouse is open every Friday evening, offering members the opportunity to meet, have a beer from the licensed bar, enjoy a braai and organise dive planning for the weekend ahead. The clubhouse, with access to the licensed bar, is also available to be hired out for functions at a very competitive rate. The club has a purpose built 7m dive boat equipped with navigation and safety equipment and is skippered by qualified club members. All dives are led by experienced dive masters who have a sound knowledge of the local reefs. The club is also home to Spear fishing and Underwater Hockey and over the years has boasted members with provincial and national colours in both disciplines. The spear fisherman host their annual competition at Hole in the Wall which is attended by divers from all over the country. The catches are strictly managed resulting in a very well supported event. Due to the number of rivers around East London, the strong wind and swell, diving can be challenging, but when conditions are favourable, divers are fortunate to have access to some world class reefs. The prime dive site is Three Sisters which is about 600 m off German Bay. Here the reef breaks the surface, rising up from 18m. This reef is composed of fossilized sea sand. It boasts deep undercut gullies and caves and ledges. The overall topography is breath-taking. Fish life is profuse with a large display of colourful sponges and soft corals.

Alan Grimmer 083 282 9138 Jane Fleischman 083 272 1300

Spear fishing/ Underwater hockey: Justin Lindsay 083 373 1500

The Fence, off Queensbury Bay, is further out to sea. It is a deeper dive and consequently is not as affected by the swell, as is so with a shallower dive. The depth drops down from 17m to 30m and is characterised by huge ledges and swim-thru’s. The variety of sea life on this dive is amazing and is even home to the rare horse fish. Nahoon Reef dive site rises from 30m up to 10m. The soft corals are beautiful, and with a torch, the vivid colours are dramatic. The wreck of the Oranjeland sits in 10m of water off the Kennaway. When visibility permits, the possibility of sighting black or silver Steenbras around the wreck is high. The large shoals of ‘Moonies‘ will circle divers endlessly. The Orient Short Pier dive is a shore entry dive, usually reserved for training and night dives for students, and despite its proximity to the harbour entrance often holds the promise to see small tropical fish. The club boasts a number of qualified PADI instructors who frequently run PADI affiliated dive courses from Discover Scuba experiences to any level of scuba training from Open Water Scuba Diver up to Dive master and Assistant Instructor level. Anyone interested in scuba training is encouraged to contact the club and they will be put in touch with an enthusiastic instructor.
