Food scene
Not as good as the real thing but its a nice place to grab a few cold ones, while the kids play.
A lovely little local pub just around the corner from us. Great atmosphere, massive portions and the beers are cold!

I have a confession, I unfairly judged the Afrikaans until I visited this historical site, its not only a beautiful venue with breathtaking views but it sheds incredible light on the plight of the boer and is well worth every South African and Tourist visiting.

Guatrain to the Hatfield station
If you're coming from O.R Tambo and you don't have a car. Catch the Gautrain to the Hatfield station and then its R150 to catch an Uber to The Blyde.
Yanınızda getirmeniz gerekenler
Bring a costume in order to swim.
The Blyde wont allow anyone to swim naked or in clothes, regardless if its a child. Please pack a proper bathing suit in order to enjoy the beach and the crystal lagoon.

Mamelodi Township
We are on the edge of Mamelodi township and although it is perfectly safe at The Blyde we wouldn't recommend venturing into Mamelodi on your own, especially not at night.
