​​Emmarentia Dam
​Emmarentia Dam is adjacent to the Johannesburg Botanic Gardens and is a popular fishing spot where anglers come for mirror carp and large mouth bass. Small yachts compete in regattas during the summer months while Duzi-talk abounds when canoeists train for the marathon. The dam is also a favourite spot for sailboard enthusiasts and all types of sun-seekers - in fact the vibe on the dam's shore can often be likened to that of a popular beach at the coast. Food vendors are plentiful over weekends. Alternatively you can bring along your own scrumptious picnic hamper to enjoy under the lush trees.
