Boulders Beach
I suggest visiting the beach at sunset; the light is incredible. It’s the perfect way to end a beautiful day in Cape Town—it’s romantic too!
Watch out for the sneaky seagulls! I seriously lost half my sandwich to one of them. Keep your food close, or you’ll be sharing your lunch!
I recommend hitting Boulders Beach early, like around 8 AM. You'll beat the crowds and have the place almost to yourself for some amazing photos.
Muizenberg Beach
My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The beach cafes can be a bit pricey, and there's a lovely picnic area you can use.
If you like swimming, keep an eye on the waves. I found the tide a bit rough at times. It's better to check local conditions before jumping in!
Table Mountain National Park
Cape of Good Hope
The Cango Caves
Check the weather before you go. It can get chilly in the caves, so bringing a light jacket was a good call for me!
Jukani Wildlife Sanctuary
Lion Head
Aquarium of Two Oceans
Garden Route National Park
When going on hikes, I recommend downloading offline maps. Signal is spotty in some areas and I got lost for a bit because I didn't. Download a map beforehand and keep your phone charged!
Plan your visits around the morning or late afternoon, like around 9 AM or after 4 PM. The light is just stunning for photos and you’ll likely spot more wildlife, plus it’s cooler too!
Camps Bay Beach
Definitely grab a beach umbrella and some snacks from local shops before you hit the sand—beachside cafes can be a bit pricey. I wish I had done that!
