Since opening its doors in 1993, Tabeel has quietly established itself as a reliable and well-loved part of the Stilbaai community. Run by Elmarie and Dries de Beer, the shop offers a carefully selected range of books, stationery, craft materials, and educational toys.
Tabeel’s shelves reflect a clear purpose: to serve both practical needs and personal interests. Visitors will find Christian literature, office and school supplies, art tools, puzzles, board games, greeting cards, and more. Services like photocopying, laminating, binding, and custom orders make it easy for customers to get everything they need in one stop.
While the offering is broad, the business remains personal. The Tabeel team knows their regulars and often supports local schools and initiatives, whether by donating vouchers for children’s art competitions or helping organisers source materials for community events.
Now as Heroes of the Biosphere, Tabeel is deepening its local impact. Their contribution supports environmental education in Hessequa, helping us reach more schools and grow awareness of the natural world among the region’s youth.
