Steenbok Nature Reserve

[1] There are two primary sections, Steenbok Park and the western part of Kingfisher Creek.

The reserve occupies an area of 17 ha (42 acres)[2] and is situated along the northern shores and consists of open grassland, small copses of trees and bush and stretches of salt marsh and is bounded by one side with the sea.

[3] Facilities at the reserve include nature trails, a wheel chair path, play areas, boardwalks, indigenous gardens and tree copses, a boma, bins and a stretch of shoreline.

There are many story boards documenting facts about the salt marshes, the Knysna sea horse, and the aquifer of fresh water found beneath the surface.

Commonly sighted specimens include malachite kingfisher, pied kingfisher, spoonbill, heron, sandpiper, white-breasted gannet, cape gannet and the black oystercatcher.
