By the light of the silvery moon

A Social Fabric initiative from the KRRA, the Full Moon Walk on Long Beach to the iconic big log has been a regular monthly gathering on Long Beach, and we highly recommend that you join us!

We meet at sunset on the evening of the Full Moon at the Surfway (Long Beach) car park to stroll to the Log (washed up years ago during a enormous storm) under the grey glint of moon's glow. Attendance varies with the weather, but we are always there.

Winter nights are often beautiful and crisp, where the moon often peeks through dramatic clouds, casting its light on a wilder beach sometimes adorned with kelp. On these nights, be prepared for a refreshing Bokromspruit River crossing (completely optional)! Summer brings wide, smooth sands dotted with sparkling tidal pools, often drawing throngs of enthusiastic beach walkers.

This all-ages event fosters connection and empowers everyone to enjoy our beautiful beach after dark, no matter the season. Socialize with neighbours, bring your kids and well-behaved dogs, and experience this Kommetjie tradition under the ever-changing, always magical, moonlight.

Why?

The KRRA has existed for eight decades and is run by volunteers who work on issues from spatial planning, road safety, social fabric, resilience (disaster mitigation), and environmental integrity such as alien clearing, indigenous planting, beach cleanups, and the restoration of our rivers and wetlands. We get walkways fixed and look at better access. We monitor building and development, and put together alerts and updates via newsletter and social media. We deal with issues that benefit you.We would ask for some reciprocation financially (as well as ideas or volunteers) to enable the above work, which sometimes includes serious issues with legal fees attached. If every Kommetjie household donated just R50 a month (less than R2 per day), the KRRA would have a healthy enough budget to tackle almost anything thrown our way.

Contact Patrick Dowling on 084 966-1249 for additional information.

We follow legal procedure with monthly agendas and an AGM where a treasurer’s report is presented and we report back to the community.

We encourage Kom residents to attend the next AGM. You will be notified via email, social media and a banner as you enter Kom. 

Be the difference.
