On The Edge: KZN Floods Update
On The Edge: KZN Floods Update featuring Umhlanga, Tiger Rocks, The Cutting, Black Rock, Scottburgh, Umzumbe, Sunwich, Umtentweni…presented by The Bear, Chelsea Dog and the Usual Suspects.
A massive thank you to Cliff Bamber for obtaining permission for us to use some of the fabulous WOW (World of Wings) material the guys shot on Tuesday. These perspectives tell all as the brown water and the salt water argue it out as they are pressed against each other by the currents and counter-currents.
Dodging Bullets
Although here in southern Kwazulu Natal – we are far from out of the woods yet, we can so far breathe a sigh of relief that we were not dealt the same treatment as inland of Port Edward, to Umtata and beyond, were over the last few days. They got hammered. Trees breaking and all sorts. The Umtamvuna flooded The Pont completely as a result of this torrential storm weather inland. You can see some of that craziness in the video too…
Sardines and Sighting Maps
We have started the 2025 Sardine Run Map! Download our app to your phone or device, accept notifications, and you will never miss a single sardine.
2024 was a thrilling year for sardines. All the action has been logged right here on The Sardine News. The 2024 map has been viewed 200 000 times and just keeps going.
Which led us to decide to keep the map live. And keep adding unique marine animal sightings and events. That occurs non-stop all year round. Last year we started to log more whale and dolphin sightings. And we even had a shipwreck! This year we have had two sailboat incidents already. PLUS, we have already logged some sardines!
