Doring
Bay is situated 8km from Strandfontein. The jetty and crayfish factory
with the lighthouse in the background creates a picture that many a
people capture in their minds and on camera. The bay was originally used
as an anchorage for the trading route. Camels was used to transport the
provisions from the bay to surrounding towns

Doring
Bay is a must see during the flower season. A bonus to this picturesque
town is the hiking trail between Doring Bay and Strandfontein. It is an
untouched rustic countryside where you can see both the whales and the
flowers in season. Definitely an experience not to be missed. In Doring
Bay the people make a living from the packaging and export of crayfish.
The economy of the town is closely linked to the operation of the
crayfish factory. Local fisherman also make a living out of the harsh
conditions on the ocean. Doring Bay's bay is also used by diamond
vessels to anchor in heavy weather.
