Cliftonpics.co.za is a series of galleries about the suburb and bay called Clifton, 
my home and roots in Cape Town, South Africa.

This site shows Clifton and its creatures through the seasons and over the years, 
and also documents activities and events.

Clifton bay is part of the Marine Protected Area of the Table Mountain National Park.
Fourth Beach holds "Blue Flag" status on account of cleanliness, safety and facilities. Pictures also demonstrate
the usage, and environmental challenges to keep this area beautiful, clean and safe.

Thanks for visiting, and hope you enjoy these.
