Intaka Island

Intaka Island is a wetland and bird sanctuary resulting from a requirement to preserve an existing wetland and provide water purification.
You can see the website here:
We recently visited the sanctuary and enjoyed the peace and serenity offered by the place despite being in the middle of a built up area of Cape Town.
