Season 1


Shoreline is a South African nature travel series produced by Homebrew Films for SABC2 in which three expert presenters - a marine biologist, an archaeologist and an historian - explore South Africa's coastlines from their unique perspectives, uncovering the archaeological, biological and anthropological features of each region.

South Africa's coast is the meeting place of two ocean giants – the cold Benguela current of the Atlantic Ocean and the warm Agulhas of the Indian Ocean.

They clash fiercely at the continents southern tip, dividing the region into two contrasting marine ecosystems that rank amongst the richest, most biologically diverse and oceanographically complex on the planet.

Shoreline reflects the heritage of the South African shoreline in an epic journey of discovery.

The series showcases South African shores and aims to connect South Africans to their land, history, heritage and each other.

A team of experts - Eleanor Yeld (Marine Biologist), Gavin Whitelaw (Archaeologist) and Nomalanga Mkhize (Historian) will take us on this 3000km journey, from Alexander Bay to Kosi Bay.

To accomplish this, the show will focus on the unique points of interest for each area and build an encyclopaedic picture of the South African shoreline, discovering the secrets, the scenery and the stories that make our coast unique and how life at the edge shaped our destiny.

Shoreline is executive produced by Jaco Loubser and hosted by actor Peter Butler, with mascot Jack the Dog.
