Safety in Mossel Bay
Mossel Bay is relatively safe however safety is your responsibility. We encourage our guests to travel in pairs or groups.
Please take note of the following
- Take advice from the locals – especially about where to go after dark.
- Avoid carrying large sums of cash and make sure that your bags and cameras are secured with stout straps.
- Don’t allow strangers to help you at bank teller machines (ATMs) – if you’re unsure of what to do, ask for assistance inside the bank or from your concierge or the manager of your guest house.
- Please don’t give money to children and beggars on the streets.
- Lock your doors whenever you leave your car unattended and, at night, park in well-lit areas.
