The coastal village of Kommetjie, with its surrounding mountains and fresh sea air is a place that grabs your heart and won’t let go. Although the locals are fiercely protective of their natural heritage and lifestyle, they warmly welcome visitors from all around the world with great pride. As one long-time resident said – “Once you have lived in Kommetjie, you can never leave”.

Four ward councillor candidates respond to KRRA’s questions ahead of the municipal elections.

Don’t forget to vote on 4 November at the 2026 municipal elections. In anticipation of the important event, KRRA sent questions to as many political candidates standing for Ward 61 as we could find, using contact details through the official public election registries.

Admittedly, we didn’t give them a great deal of time to respond – around one week – but we only received responses from four candidates:

Melshaw Wyngaard, ActionSA
Yagyah Adams, Cape Muslim Congress
Simon Liell-Cock, Democratic Alliance
Pieter Jansen van Vuuren, Vryheidsfront Plus / Freedom Front Plus

Between The Komm and Slangkop Lighthouse end, there are at least 100 Humpback whales. A huge amount of blowing and some are breaching, way too many to count. Big group off Longbeach Kommetjie too. Definitely worth the drive. 🐋🐋🐋
