Hout Bay Dunes to Sandy Bay



This is a wonderful #walk that will treat you to amazing, panoramic views of #Hout Bay and #Sandy Bay, taking you from one scenic bay to another. The walk begins on a gradual uphill road which becomes quite steep near the top. The dunes will be on your left hand side as you climb out of Sandy Bay. They are great to walk on but we advise you to rather walk down them on your way back.

You turned to run/crawl straight up a sandy bluff perhaps 100 feet high. The first time I went in there, on reaching the top I saw a vast expanse of snow. snow? wait, no, it was white sand dunes stretching for a quarter mile. Spectacular sensation of freshness and relief, while you are walking barefoot long the route. You traversed the #sand dunes and dropped quickly back into the neighborhood. Wow.The best visual run of my life.
You can see people run around with their #dogs and #children play with the sand...
At the top of the saddle you will look down on the secluded Sandy Bay; known for being #Cape Town’s #nudist beach. The sandy path traverses down towards the white sandy beach.

Be sure to take a #costume and towel on a hot day as you will be very tempted to swim in the cool #ocean, which will leave you refreshed and ready to walk back up over into Hout Bay.

If you want to experience the breeze and the romantic atmosphere, you must wait for the #sunset, beautiful from the top of the dunes and always different... You won't regret any moments spent in this unusual and unique spot in Hout Bay.
