The east lights up as the sun rises on this southern tip of #Africa. Mountains catch the first rays of warmth, sending a warning with the light breeze towards the waters grazing the well-known #Cape Town #beaches.
It’s going to be a sunny day! Perfect for the exploration of the numerous beaches Cape Town has on offer. Cape Town is renowned for her magnificent beaches, but selecting the perfect one for fun in the summer sun can prove somewhat difficult!
It’s best is to get up early and make your way from your Cape Town accommodation, down towards the #False Bay coastline- ideal to experience one of Cape Town’s spectacular sunrises.
Start off at #Muizenberg Beach where the air is crisp and the sea forecasts another lovely day. Morning dew forms patterns on the pearly white sand; it’s that special time of morning when you allow your soul to be recharged by the power of the waves.
Little colourful beach houses over looking #False Bay, declare that this beach is where Cape Town surfing originated from. Professional guides who teach this sport are available for anyone interested!
Carrying on along the coast, it’s probably about time for a delicious breakfast!
#Olympia Café awaits your arrival. This little Café is situated in #Kalk Bay, just past #St James - one of the smaller beaches along the False Bay coastline. Sitting in the trendy Café, customers are greeted by a tranquil view of cobalt blue waters rubbing gently against the sides of anchored boats. Kalk Bay is a lively fishing village known for its fresh fish and fascinating, arty main road
Compared to the Atlantic Ocean, the water is much warmer on the False Bay coast. The little town of #Fishhoek is another popular beach- perfect for families with children as it’s one of the safest swimming beaches in the Cape. Fifteen minutes drive takes you to a series of small, picturesque sandy shores situated between granite boulders, where black and white African penguins flock together. These small comical seabirds are the reason for #Boulders Beach’s popularity.
Passing the #Cape Point Nature Reserve you leave behind #Indian Ocean and meet the Atlantic Ocean. Well-known beaches host bronzed sun bathers along this popular palm-tree lined coastline. The waters of the Atlantic Seaboard are several degrees colder than along the False Bay coastline, but still attract a lot of visitors since Cape Town’s hot summers call for a refreshing dip in icy waters.
Hout Bay is a well-loved town known for its delicious fresh seafood offered all year round. The beach here is appropriate for splashing in the waves with the kids, boogie boarding, paddle skiing and just family fun in the sun.
In contrasting further along the coast is Sandy Bay- a beach where those who are in need of an all-over tan are more than welcome. Kids might want to spend the day with the babysitter!
#Clifton, #Camps Bay and #Llandudno are the most popular beaches on the Atlantic side. This is where summer sun and models embrace, while children build sand castles and surfers show their skills in the waves!
Whether you desire peace and quiet on a secluded beach, or fun in the sun with big waves and plenty of people, Cape Town is the picture-perfect beach destination!
