Gerickes Point - Sedgefield


World Famous - This site offers magnificent views and sometimes whales or dolphins might just pop in for a quick swim, so be sure to take your camera.

Entrance is situated opposite Pine Lake Marina, Sedgefield. Sign in and pay at gate. All persons obey site board and drive slowly. Turn left just before the owner's house and continue until you come to car park overlooking the sea. This is a Fynbos reserve, so STRICTLY NO SMOKING, LITTERING OR FIRES.

Huge lift band. Good for practising your safety techniques / acro, as it's almost impossible to drop out. Top landings are reasonably easy, just don't go too far back on the ridge. Talk to the LOCALS, otherwise land on the beach.

Dangers: Characteristics of cliff take off in strong wind with rapid lift, so be careful.
