The African Penguin and Sea Bird Sanctuary at Kleinbaai is a wonderful example of conservation, (the Dyer Island conservation trust), tourism and business working together to create a world class center for the benefit of sea birds and the environment. I thoroughly enjoyed being part of this project.
