One of our biggest highlights every month is the #discoverOverberg chat on Twitter. For 1 hour the Twittersphere comes alive with tips, photos, and pure passion for the Western Cape’s Overberg region. There’s a new topic every month and yesterday was all spring. Spring has our toes itching to head outdoors – even if it’s only to lounge on the veranda! And from these photos, you’ll find that the Overberg has plenty of ways to enjoy the new season.
