Last update: 12 hours ago

Tourism & Experiences: Plettenberg Bay’s Formosa Bay Resort has unveiled “Africa’s largest 3D-printed structure,” the Waffling Whale Tail, giving Garden Route travellers a new stop-and-stay landmark. Local Governance: The DA says it wants private-sector firms to run basic municipal services like water and electricity if it wins more metros in the 4 November 2026 local elections. Women’s Day & Civic Power: A new piece marks 9 August and links Women’s Day to the push for women’s participation in the 2026 local government elections. Sports & National Pride: Safa has approved Pitso Mosimane as Bafana Bafana coach, with contract talks still under way ahead of AFCON 2027 qualifiers. Regional Travel & Trade: An AfDB-funded road upgrade in Eswatini is expected to cut travel times and lift trade with South Africa and Mozambique by 5%. Travel Culture: A reminder that South Africans do tip—especially on safari—where gratuities can add up fast.
