    I think I live on the most beautiful coast in the world for daily updates visit sardine run updates
    Great... thanks for the regular updates... some questions - I am considering a last minute trip down in the next 2 weeks to see the run. According to the current condition, is it better for 1st week of July, or the second week? ...or will it already be too late? I have never been there before and only read about it. The operator is based out in Mbotyi, is this the best place to see it? I also read in some opinions that this year's run will not be as good/spectacular as previous years, what's your opinion?

    thanks, J.
