A must-see city which stuns from sea to sky
Magical Cape Town is a fascinating mix of up-to-the-minute vibrancy , beautiful natural attributes , stunning biodiversity , colourful culture , fascinating history and award-winning food and wine , all rubbing shoulders under the city ’ s headline act , Table Mountain . Top of the must-do list is to ride the cable car to the summit of majestic Table Mountain , although you may need to wait for the famous mist to clear first . During the gentle five minute ascent , the cable car rotates 360 º, affording you incredible views below . Other notable attractions include infamous Robben Island where Nelson Mandela and many other freedom fighters were imprisoned , the historic Bo-Kaap enclave with its vividly painted houses and , the bustling Victoria and Alfred ( V & A ) Waterfront , which boasts a wide range of shopping , dining and entertainment options as well as a busy calendar of events . City Bowl brims with diversity and heritage . The architecture of City Hall and Grand Parade is definitely worth a look or , you can seek refuge in Company ’ s Garden or the highly-acclaimed Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens which nestle on the eastern slope of Table Mountain . Get your fill of history or art at numerous city museums , including the impressive District Six Museum and Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa and don ’ t miss bohemian Long Street which , by day , is abuzz with unique coffee shops , restaurants , book shops and craft markets , while after dark , it ’ s a place of music , food and fun well into the early hours . The Atlantic Seaboard is a beautiful stretch of coastline in Cape Town , with some lovely beaches perfect for swimming , sunbathing and surfing . The boardwalk at Seapoint is ideal for a leisurely stroll , while trendy Camps Bay ’ s lovely stretch of white sand provides a wonderful place to while away an afternoon or evening watching the sun set . No trip to Cape Town is complete without spending a day exploring the spectacular Cape Peninsula and its dramatic coastline . It ’ s a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts and also where you can get up close and personal with fascinating wildlife , including penguins at Boulders Beach . While in the region we recommend exploring the historic naval port of Simon ’ s Town and scaling the cliff above the Cape of Good Hope for Atlantic vistas .
