Two youngsters made the most of the Western Cape’s big wave weather this week with an old-school game of chicken in Kleinbaai.
The snaps were captured by Peter-John Botha between Blue Peter and Ons Huisie and shared with permission from the children’s parents (who were keeping a very close eye on their wave chasers just out of the picture frame).
The South African Weather Service issued a Yellow Level 2 warning to residents in the Western Cape, with “damaging waves” that were expected to hit Plettenberg Bay and Richards Bay on Monday. The ripple effects appear to have stretched a little closer to home.
