ATTRACTIONS AT THE V&A WATERFRONT
Cape Town’s entertainment scene does not disappoint. A warm climate and seemingly never-ending coastlines make for the perfect getaway for the whole family.
Kids love the V&A Waterfront, and when looking at all the activities on offer (from the Aquarium, to art jamming, an indoor park and toy shops) it is easy to see why. Other attractions at the waterfont include the 2 oceans aquarium, seal island, robben island, the hop on and hop off sight seeing bus, catamran and sunset boat cruises. Lions Head, table mountain and signal hill offer breath taking views of cape town.
Cape Town is not only a popular international tourist destination in South Africa but Africa as a whole. This is due to its mild climate, natural setting, and well-developed infrastructure. The city has several well-known natural features that attract tourists, most notably Table Mountain which forms a large part of the Table mountain national park and is the back end of the city nowl area. Reaching the top of the mountain can be achieved either by hiking up, or by taking the table mountain cable car.
Cape Point is recognised as the dramatic headland at the end of the cape Peninsula. Many tourists also drive along Chapmans Peak a narrow road that links Noordehoek with Hout Bay for the views of the Atlantic Ocean and nearby mountains. It is possible to either drive or hike up Signal for closer views of the City Bowl and Table Mountain. Enjoy the camps bay strip with vibrant restuarants and bars,
Beaches to enjoy during your stay in cape town include:
CLIFTON 1-4
Situated in one of Cape Town’s most sought-after and affluent suburbs, Clifton’s beaches are a favourite of locals and tourists alike and are arguably some of the best in the country. Ten minutes from the city centre and comprising four beach coves separated by giant boulders that protect against Cape Town’s unruly ‘south-easter’ wind, the soft white sand and majestic blue water of each of the four beaches are an unofficial playground for those looking to take advantage of those hot summer days and jovial holiday atmosphere.
CAMPS BAY
Just down the road from Clifton you’ll find the gently curving crescent of camps Bay – the best-known beach on the Cape town beach. Both locals and visitors flock to this palm-lined strip for people-watching, to play beach bats or volleyball, walk their dogs or catch a tan while gazing up at the dramatic peaks of the Twelve Apostles range, part of Table Mountain.
If the wind picks up, hop onto the Camps Bay strip to one of many trendy restaurants, cafes or fashionable bars where Cape Town’s beautiful people dine on seafood or sip chilled local wine. On peak summer days these restaurants spill out onto the pavements, creating a wonderfully laid-back Mediterranean ambience.
LLANDUDNO
About 20 kilometres (12 miles) south of Cape Town on the way to Hout Bay and the scenic Chapman’s Peak Drive, Llandudno may be a bit off the beaten track, but this spectacular beach is certainly a favourite among locals. A narrow road winds its way down through an exclusive hillside neighbourhood to a soft sandy cove where you’ll find children building sandcastles; groups of friends playing beach bats and frisbee; surfers carving patterns on the waves; and waggy-tailed dogs bounding about.
BOULDERS BEACH
For a Cape Town beach with a unique twist, head to Boulders beach. This soft-sand beach and slightly warmer sea (it’s on the False Bay coastline) are home to a large colony of endangered African penguins. These endearing birds have become minor celebrities and visitors flock to watch them strut their stuff between the hulking granite boulders – a highly entertaining sight to see.
Boulders Beach lies about 40 kilometres (25 miles) south of Cape Town, just beyond the naval base in picturesque Simon’s Town, which makes it a great stop on the way to or from Cape Town natures reserve.
