Stilbaai's fish traps are still-working relics from the past, both the recent and very distant past. Most of the existing fish traps that can still be seen have been built during the past 300 years, some as recently as the latter part of the 20th century, whilst others, according to Avery, could date as far back as 3,000 years ago, but he stresses that this does not preclude a possibly of an ...

Some 300 river outlets intersect this coastline and these ...
A California tide pool in the low tide zone. The intertidal region is an important model system for the study of ecology, especially on wave-swept rocky shores. The region contains a high diversity of species, and the zonation created by the tides causes species ranges to be compressed into very narrow bands.
