Blousloep Beach Overview:

Blousloep Beach in Franskraal has been a popular fishing hole for generations of anglers who enjoy socializing with friends while they try to hook a ‘big one’.

The cute little cul de sac beach at Blousloep is peaceful and the inlet is perfect for swimming at high tide, although rubber booties are a must if you don’t want a fish hook embedded in your dainty little feet. If this should happen there are doctors in Gansbaai who can remove the painful piercing.
