Further Details
Great mountain and beach walks! Access to a Table Mountain National Park mountain trail just 400 metres down the road. Walk to popular Fish Hoek beach, featuring a kid's playground, restaurant, bistro, warm water and safe bathing.
Both the world-renowned Boulder's Beach Penguin Colony and Cape Point Nature Reserve are located nearby, as is the Chapman's Peak Drive and the Constantia Wine Route (all within 20km).
Whale-watching is a favourite pastime in the False Bay area from early August through to mid-October each year. Enjoy whale-viewing from the comfort of your balcony, or you can take a stroll along the coastline for more intimate views of these fascinating, gigantic mammals frolicking in the sunshine.
Kalk Bay, a quaint fishing village and harbour is just around the corner where bartering with the colourful local fishermen for the catch of the day is a popular local custom. The village has a bohemian atmosphere and a morning spent exploring the various curio shops, antique dealers, restaurants, coffee shops and art dealers is a rewarding experience.
Simons Town (historic head quarters of the South African Navy) is a similar distance away and offers a naval museum, interesting toy museum, dockside restaurants, trips to Seal Island and penguin watching at Boulder's Beach.
