Drinks & Nightlife

The entire street has great places. Food, wine, cocktails, gins sometimes music. More upmarket than Long and Loop Street and typically an "older" crowd. At the top (closer to the mountain) the restaurants and bars are closer to each other.

This is the local beach strip (Victoria Road). The only place in the Atlantic Seaboard that has an entire street with restaurants across from the beach. Great restaurants, a few good bars, nice vibes and best sunset in Cape Town.

Parks & Nature

Take the cable car. Walk the trails (pls make sure you understand what is needed, this may be in a city, but there is some serious walk/climbs out there). Have a picnic on top.

360 degree view from the top and popular for sundowners. You can also do this at night if the moon is big. Most people can do this, but there is steep sections and a ladder or two to navigate.

Mainly locals here, so go early if you want a spot. Great to braai or picnic. The brave can even swim and/or snorkel. Note, on good days, this can get very crowded over the holiday period.

The is a big, busy long beach in front of the caravan park. However, before you get to it (from the Cape Town's side), stop at the parking lot next to the road and walk down the steep footpath to get to three small beaches tucked way in the rocks. Great place to spend the day over a braai or do a picnic. Great surfing and swimming, but pls keep an eye on the tides, not for the novice.

Essentials

Best place in town to buy great meat and fish at reasonable prices. Bakery and fresh fruit and vegetables. Also have a shop that sells wine, beer and other alcoholic beverages next door. All the other normal stuff is there.

Two hours out, a town tucked in a box valley. It is here the French Huguenots settled when they fled to South Africa. Know for its food and wines. Can get hot and busy. So book if you want to at famous restaurants or take your changes and see what you can get into. Do a wine tour.

The village is not much, but the pass is something to experience. Make a day out of it. Turn right at the end and come back via De Toits Kloof pass (over the top, not the tunnel). Turn left and come back via Tulbagh and Riebeek Kasteel.
