Cape Town - Nearly Summertime!

 Cape Town is a year round destination - there is always something to do or see.


Cape Town's V&A Waterfront is one of the best in the world - from buskers, to ferry trips to Robben Island, various Boat trips, Helicopter flips, Restaurants galore, a huge variety of stores. 


Camps Bay Beachfront is one of the liveliest coastal spots and caters for all ages. 

Whether lazing on the white sands, swimming in the Tidal pool, sipping cocktails at a roadside restaurant or having a invigorating game of volley ball, your day out will be fun-filled.



Simonstown offers quirky shops, the adorable penguins plus stunning seascapes at Boulders Beach.


 
Kalk Bay is another very busy and vibrant seaside village with many interesting stores, a working harbour with fishing boats, seafood to enjoy or just to enjoy a coffee while people watching.



Hout Bay is another seaside community - enjoy the weekend Bay Harbour Market, watch the friendly seals (don't get too close), take a boat cruise or enjoy tasty seafood at the various eateries. 



Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens 
The gardens change throughout the seasons - it's an ideal starting point for hikers to Skeleton Gorge; those who want to enjoy a picnic on the lawns; those looking to enjoy the summer open-air concerts featuring a variety of artists; or just those wishing for peace and tranquility. 
Grab a bench and enjoy the bird life, plus the various flora, depending on the season.  


Groot Constantia offers wine tasting and is on the (Red) City Sightseeing Bus Route
With 2 restaurants and an enjoyable walk in the grounds, this is ideal if you are tired of the beach!



Cape Point is worth at least a day and a self-drive is recommended to view the various beaches and hiking trails. If you are lucky you will see various wildlife or even some baboons eating shellfish at Buffels Bay Beach. Do walk to the old lighthouse - the views are worth the climb



There is so much more to do in Cape Town and surrounds - the city caters for all tastes;
Foodies, Adrenaline junkies, History buffs, hikers, museum lovers, beach lovers, surfers, shoppers and whatever else your heart desires!
