THE LAGOON
Langebaan is situated 120km north of Cape Town on the eastern shore of the Langebaan Lagoon, just off the R27, about 28km from Vredenburg and 20km from Saldanha Bay. The Lagoon stretches for 17km from Saldanha Bay, past Langebaan to Geelbek in the South. In places it is up to 4km wide.
The Langebaan Lagoon was formed by the rising and falling of sea levels during pre-historic times from hundreds of feet below to an elevation of 120 to 140 meters above the present sea-level. A 10 km wide channel between the mainland coast near Langebaanweg and a large island (today only the hills are visible) which extended from Saldanha Bay and Vredenburg to St Helena was formed.
“The proto-berg river had its estuary near Langebaanweginto this channel in the direction of present day Spreeuwalle. Today, however, no fresh water enters the lagoon as the Berg River now enters the sea at Velddrif. This is unlike most lagoons where fresh water from rivers enters into a lagoon. As a result, Langebaan Lagoon is a quintessential salt water lagoon. The town Langebaan was founded in 1922 and used as a whaling station until the 1960s. “Hendey, Q.B. 1982. Langebaanweg - A record of past life." Trustees of SA Museum, Cape Town.
“Pano Avli” means “Upper Quarters” in one of the many Greek dialects. Pano Avli is the ideal destination for a self-catering beach holiday.
