EXPLORING THE DUNES OF ATLANTIS

in #adventure7 years ago (edited)

A while back we purchased an old Mitsubishi Pajero 3.2 DiD 4x4 as our travel vehicle. Feeling the need to test out its capabilities and have some fun in the process we decided to spend a day at Atlantis Dunes in Cape Town. This place is very special and a bit of a secret to the locals. Just a few kilometers outside the city lies this hidden desert of soft white beach sand, surrounded by dense coastal vegetation. You are completely isolated from the surrounding areas and if it were not for the famous table mountain standing proud in the distance you would think you were in another world.

I invited my older brother and his family to join us in there Land Rover Discovery, having two 4x4's is better than one and family time is the best.

I made sure all our recovery equipment was in tact the night before and we were off the next morning....

The Pajero handled itself superbly making me feel as though I was an experienced driver, I am now much more confident in its abilities. It was a great day out and we look forward to doing it again soon.

Bring on the next adventure....
