| Angling...... Since Hentie van der Merwe discovered the fountain in the Valley, Henties Bay was renowned for its abundance in fish and fishermen flocked to this magical spot to share in the riches the sea so generously offered. In those years Hentie and his friends did not have fancy angling gear - they used a hand line secured to a stick, a piece of chain for a sinker and nails for hooks. Red bait and mussels were as plentiful as fish. Today fishing is still great fun and more and more fishermen flock to Henties Bay to partake in this popular sport. The main attraction is not only the fish, but the wide open beaches where serious anglers with their 4x4 vehicles are heartily welcomed and where the whole family can enjoy endless days on the beach.
