Spectacular sea life can be seen at various times throughout the year - whales, seals, dolphins to name a few.
The adjacent vlei's add to the magnificent bird life in the area. The most fascinating being the endangered African Black Oyster Catcher.

Located in a quiet corner on the north side of Yzerfontein where it borders the West Coast National Park. The adjacent Fynbos, pan and vlei area are home to a large variety of birds and the beach is a five minute walk away.
All cottages are fully equipped, ready for a peaceful self-catering stay. All bedrooms have double rooms with double beds and all linen provided. Kitchens are also fully equipped with a fridge, freezer, stove, oven and microwave. All cottages also have private outdoor areas with braai facilities.

"Everything you could need plus extras"
14 November 2016"SPEAR CHUKKA'S Namaqua house is comfortable with all the self catering, TV, entertainment and braai facilities you need for a super lekker holiday at the sea. It is reasonably priced so what more can you ask for ?<br/><br/>The only negative for us was the steep stairs which were hazardous for our 1 year old."

"Wonderful Easter Break"
22 April 2014"My boyfriend and I decided to spend the Easter weekend at Spear Chukka in Yzerfontein. We stayed in the Namib Cottage and what a wonderful stay it was. The cottage was lovely with it's own courtyard and garden, fully equipped kitchen, large bathroom (has an awesome shower) and nicely sized bedroom. The beach is about a 2 minute walk away from the cottage and at night you could hear the waves crashing on the beach. The birds were plentiful!We would definitely recommend Spear Chukka for your holiday break in Yzerfontein."

22 September 2009"We had a most enjoyable stay despite the weather being otherwise!Yzerfontein is a most charming place. We were able to see marvellous flowers in the Postberg section of the West Coast National Park and had the most incredible game pie at the Buffelsfontein Nature Reserve. Darling was also a pleasure."

14 September 2009"Dough came to meet us as we arrived. We didn't even have to ring the bell and the entrance. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed. We went to Postberg Saturday morning and saw some beautiful flowers. The lagoon is always a site to see because of the colour of the water. It is so beautiful. We went for a walk on the beach and it is so clean. It rained on Sunday but that didn't make the stay less pleasant. We rode through the village and viewed the houses and the environment."

" We had a wonderful stay, "
29 April 2008"Yzerfontein was breathtakingly beautiful and Doug made us feel most welcome at Spear Chukka. It was nice to get local info from him and learn a bit about the history of the place. West Coast Park was lovely- would love to go during the flower season. 16 mile beach is awesome and the shells are like nowhere else to be found.Would definitely go back."

"Super holiday!!"
07 January 2008"Spear Chukka's unit was so well equipped and very neat. And Doug and Lin were so welcoming and hospitable. The even offered to lend us a gazebo and deck chairs for the beach! We had a stunning Christmas lunch - roast duck and gammon cooked in Doug's Weber. The beach at Yzerfontein is really beautiful and the setting is so peaceful. We bought local snoek caught fresh off the boats and crayfish in Paternoster. The unit overlooks lovely fynbos and dunes but is only 5 minutes walk to an unspoilt beach. Meeurots restaurant made excellent calamari and had a great wine list of local wines (thanks Doug for the tip!). Super holiday all in all."

28 May 2007"The accommodation is very good value for money, very comfortable and well stocked with all necessities. The establishment is perfectly situated in a quiet neighbourhood, just a short walk from the most spectacular beach I have ever seen - miles and miles of pristine white sand. The birdllife is abundant, the locals are incredibly welcoming and the views are out of this world. Relaxation comes easily."

"Review"
23 January 2006"Very warm and functional rooms. Great little braai areas and did not have that 'commercialised' feel to it. Best part was the two friendly dogs, 'Pinto' and 'Boet' who always made us feel very welcome. "
