For those South Africans living abroad, especially if you’re shivering in the cold in the Northern Hemisphere… this is what you missed in SA on Christmas Day. Pull up a towel and enjoy, if only vicariously!
The stunning video footage, taken in the Western Cape on 25 December 2016, was uploaded by ‘Cape Town Guy’. He said: “Not every Christmas is cold and white. In Cape Town, South Africa, many spend the day at the beach enjoying the hot summers day!”
Watch Christmas at the beach, captured by drone
Last week Cape Town Guy uploaded another drone video which captured the dramatic rescue of two men caught in a rip current at Glen Beach in Cape Town.
He said the men had cried out for help, and luckily three surfers – Adam Zartz, Ryan Berkowitz and Christopher Verster-Cohen – were on the beach and “leapt into Lifesaver mode, saving these two young men from drowning”.
He said: “If it wasn’t for these brave men who risked their own lives to save two strangers, who knows what the outcome would have been. These are true heroes that South Africa should be proud of!”
