Macassar beach

Macassar is a wild beach in the suburbs of Cape Town, South Africa. There are only sand dunes, as well as few abandoned buildings. The locals are mainly fishermen, so there's nothing like any tourist amenities. Surprisingly, this is not a criminal area. But you should understand, that in South Africa complete security is possible only behind the high guarded wall. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
