It is surrounded by well-preserved coastal fynbos, has access to the beach and offers a view of Robben Island across Table Bay. This facility forms part of the Blaauwberg Conservation Area. The second facility situated at Melkbosstrand is known as Melkbos Oppiesee. This centre, just south of and adjacent to the Melkbos Cultural Centre, has a panoramic view of Table Bay, Robben Island and Table Mountain. The upgrading of the ablution facilities at Melkbos Oppiesee will be done later in 2005. (b) Schoemanspoort Cultural Centre near Oudtshoorn Situated some 15 km north of Oudtshoorn in a narrow kloof along the historic old pass leading to the Cango Valley through Schoemanspoort, the Schoemanspoort Cultural Centre consists of a number of rondavels and has a large hall equipped with a kitchen. This facility is mostly utilised by the communities of the Southern WESTERN CAPE CULTURAL COMMISSION – WES-KAAPSE KULTUURKOMMISSIE – IKHOMISHONI YENTSHONA KOLONI 8 Cape and Little Karoo.
