Beaches
Camps Bay Beach
Camps Bay beach is right across the road from the shopping mall which allows you to take a break from the sun and enjoy a meal or leave the beach and have sunset cocktails. There is lots of artwork along the beach so get your selfie stick ready for some amazing holiday photos. You can also arrange to hire a beach chair and umbrella to relax while listening to the waves and watching the surfers.
Clifton beaches
Clifton has four small beaches which stretch along the coast. These beaches a filled in the summer months and are a great attraction hosting various events. The are all accessed via stairs from the main road so be sure you don't forget anything in the car!
Oudekraal
This is a great family beach to visit. There are a few braai areas as well as bathrooms. This beach is perfect for a family day out as it is one of the few beaches you can cook on and also enjoy a few drinks.Please be responsible when visiting a beach in Cape Town. Pack lots of sunblock, an umbrella and trash bags so you don't leave anything behind.
