- We hadn't visited Melkbosstrand in a long time, and we were excited to see it again. The first thing we noticed was how much it had expanded, yet it remained beautiful and clean. We explored the local Saturday Family Market, which was a lot of fun, and then took a drive through the Ou Skip Caravan Park, which was awesome. It was such a gorgeous day that we decided to stop at the beach, where I went for a walk. There we saw people enjoying themselves with their dogs, fishing, running, and walking. As we started feeling hungry, we searched for a place to eat and found a delicious meal. Our visit to Melkbosstrand was great fun! #DustBugs #dustbugstravel #adventuretravel #southafrica #southafricavlog #travelongravel #westerncape

Hi guys I am traveling with you sitting at the backseat . nobody sees me.🎉😂😂
Hi you two! This was a wonderful trip again. I don't have words to express my experience with you. It is just so wonderful that so much care for nature can be found in what is in reality a suburb of the big city of Cape Town. I hope to be down there later in the year. Your drone views were exceptional as usual. Glad you could do your WC tour before the storms came! Keep safe until we see again!
Hi.thank you I have been living in Ou skip resort for 12 years wouldn't change it for the world...its another type of peace
Hi Curtis Sonia and Dusty, thanks once again for this journey through our province, Melkbosstrand is a favourite of our family, love the vibes and the endless stretch of beach. I hope you are taking a little bit of a rest before you journey again, safe travels 🥾❤
Was my home for 30years,so I'll always be a Melkie at heart...its the peacefulness i miss the most.
I must say, your addition of aerial drone footage (of late) really enhances your videos; a bird's eyeview offers a good overview of the street-level view perspective we get from your handycam. Well done!
S Africa is a beautiful country, loved your travel,here and there, 👍♥️🥰 From Frances uk
Thank you for showing our lekka little town of Melkbos. It's such a privilege to call it home. 🙂🇿🇦 Drive safe and look forward to your next adventures.
I love Melkbosstrand 🎉❤ What a beautiful little place with a stunning beach⛱️ I would love to stay there for a few days 🥰
It is so safe here. Sure someone grabbed something out of my hand a year ago but it is very safe. You can walk around ALONE without feeling scared. It has changed alot over the years. It was Super safe compared to now but its still amazing. It is very nice cuz its close to the city and has everything you need in the town. The ok foods is probably my fav place to shop at.
Hi guys , this was absolutely brilliant , SA is really a beautiful country
BEST part of cape town by far!!! Home for 6 years now
Thanks for a lovely place, it was lively in a good way, thanks once more.
Loved this trip No. 26. Lots of drone footage which is always a treat
It puts the town size into perspective.🎉 thanks again for a good overview of melkbos. I could smell tropica suntan lotion as you were driving thru that lovely caravan park...lol kids kicking balls and girls walking in groups...lol
And that's a wrap for the western cape ... Where to next 🤔🤔🤔🤔💋♥️💋
😁 We're fresh back from Trip 27. You might find out sooner than you think. 🚙😎
Melkbos is a most stunning beach resort. And so close to town. The camp site is really beautiful. A safe beach and lots to do whatever you like to do. Great visit thank you. Will wait for the next one.
Hi julle dankie vir die mooi plek se wys. Was nog nooit hier nie. Dit het so lekker strand sal dit lief om daar te loop. Dankie veilig ry
What a stunning place. It has been wonderful travelling with you through the Western Cape. It truly is a beautiful past of our country. Thank you for the wonderful travels. Travel safe and look forward to your future trips!
Hi there, the caravan park absolutely stunning for a nice getaway. Lived the bunny rabbits. Drone footage awesome. Always look forward to what you order on the menu. Be safeon the road.
Gosh! How Melkbosstrand has grown since I visited it in 2000, but just as busy and vibrant a coastal village now as it was back then. Your drone footage sums it up beautifully. I await the next adventure in anticipation ........
Those leaning trees. Impressive!
Hi guys what a wonderful seaside town everything looks new and in pristine condition with the all present view of Table Mountain awesome nature reserve amazing beach. The market was interesting lots of food stalls. What a fantastic place for a golf course mind blowing with driving range and cut practice green. Absolutely loved the caravan park great to see no music sign as you said Curtis you go there for peace and quiet. I guess the NGK church was bound to be ultra modern. Melkbos beach had everything going for it beautiful property's restaurants and bustling with people enjoying it .plenty of mussel shells .lovely spot for breakfast. Safety drill right next to you only on dustbugs. Loved the old ford bakkie. The drone footage shows the beauty of the area .thanks for taking me along cheerio till the next one
Yes...Melkbos has expanded quite a lot since the old days when we use to have a family braai at the beach in Melkbos...but you are not allowed any more. And the very enjoyable evenings at Melkbosskerm. Quite a few memorable weekends was spent as the Ou Skip too....and even some fishing at Melkbos....yes a very nice place...would have loved to have a house there. Looking forward to the next travel...
I had a friend who shared a house with a guy from Walfish Bay who owned the house in Melkbosstrand back in the 1980's. He had a bust of Hitler in the house. Say no more, as they say. That guy finished up back in Walfish Bay, the ex-friend is now in the US. Melkbos was tiny back in the 1980's, from memory. Nice to see it has progressed. That beach is awesome..
It is more than 20 years since we last camped at Ou Skip. So glad to see how beautiful it still is. Now I'm dreaming of going there again!
That road M19 has become a major access route from the West Coast to the northern suburbs (Bellville & esp Durbanville). With so much development around the Western Seaboard, many people commute to the northern suburbs these days.
Keep well guys until our next trip 🎉❤🙏
Whoa! I was there 20 years ago. That town got BIG!
Used to live at the Cultural centre...👍🏼
Thanks for featuring THE BEST Market, @Melkbos Family Market. Great venue, fantastic food, cakes, biltong, jewellery, condiments, toys, and very friendly vendors. 💕
Melkbos het ‘n pragtige strand❤
Yoh. You're done with the Western Cape.
Thank-you for this series of the towns and villages of the Western Cape, and also Thank-you to Ricky's Drift (described as one of the most beautiful places on earth..) for sponsoring the petrol to make all of these episodes possible. You visited my favorite place and showcased a village that has peeked my interest. By the way the Market that you visited in Melkbos looked fantastic, and I am certain that this video will bring them more customers. Some really great looking products there. Ouskip's campsite under the Palm Tree 🌴, looks really inviting..Melkbos looked extra special through your lense😊..
Baie dankie vriende.
Looks like low tide
We used to call the tourists to Cape Town die "kyk daars"
Do you think you will ever do the kruger national park again?
Absolutely no doubt! Now that we've experienced Kruger again after such a long time, nothing will keep us away! 😍🚙
@DustBugsTravel I must say that the Krugers series has been the highlight of my life with Dustbugs. I do however enjoy all of your episodes. Thanks for all the experiences I get to sharing with you. I always look forward to your next episode! Safe travels guys!
,what is the negative and the positives to live out in melkbos strand
I have no idea. We travel and make videos for fun and not with a view to relocate. If you or anyone else is interested in Melkbosstrand as an option to settle, each person should do their own research and visit the town themselves to get a feel for the place. 🚙😁
