Vintage Pearly Beach Shop Photo 1985

We spotted this photo of Pearly Beach Shop, dated 1985, and knew we had to share it!

Still going strong after all these years, was it the trampoline in front of the shop, small bags of “los lekkers”, creamy soft-serve ice cream cones or the friendly shop assistant and petrol attendant, Stoffel, who made each visit special?

Whatever stories you have about Pearly Beach Shop, they are a big part of Gansbaai’s history too.
