SERENITY The main attraction of Paternoster is its peacefulness and serenity. There is an unofficial rule in Paternoster that everyone should be quiet after 22:00 at night. We would appreciate it if you could adhere to this. SECURITY As much as we would like to think that our fishing village is a safe and friendly paradise, we would be failing our duty to you, our valued guests, to not point out that petty theft does happen here when given the opportunity. Criminals target small high value items like wallets, cell phones, iPods, laptops, GPS’s, camera’s and binoculars. The crime is generally not of a violent nature. We strongly advise that all windows and doors are shut and locked in all unoccupied areas of the house. Please ensure that your valuables are put away out of sight eg. in cupboards, drawers etc. Remember to lock and close all shutters as well as to lock and set the alarm when leaving the house. Please be cautious of the crayfish and other street vendors as they are often sent to look for opportunities to commit crime. If you do purchase crayfish, rather do so at the fish market area where no one gets close to your property. Remember that purchasing and being in possession of crayfish outside season is illegal and carries a severe fine. These simple measures should go a long way to safeguarding your personal belongings and possessions. On a positive note, it is very safe to walk and explore Paternoster village and the lovely beaches – even at night.
