Skywatch Friday - The Donkin

Sunrise at the Donkin Reserve with two iconic symbols of the city. The old lighthouse and the pyramid, built by Sir Rufane Donkin in memory of late his wife Elizabeth, after whom the city is named.


This is one our favourite spots to watch the sunrise over Algoa Bay.

The Donkin pyramid and lighthouse truly is an iconic sight and site. One of my favorites as well. Super shot.
