Cape Town in South Africa has Impressive Mountains and Marvelous Beaches
Print This Article Ezine Publisher Send To Friends Add To Favorites Post A Comment Suggest Topic Report Author

The city is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and by idyllic landscapes with a unique fauna and flora, impressive mountains and marvellous beaches on the Cape Peninsula, the warm False Bay and the rough West Coast.

City centre:

Here you can take a tour on an open-topped bus. The historical centre offers many sights and attractions such as The Castle, the Company’s Gardens, the flea market on Greenmarket Square and the South African Museum.

Table Mountain:

A visit to Table Mountain is a must when you are in Cape Town. From a plateau, which can be reached by cable car or walking, you have a spectacular view of the city.

Victoria & Alfred Waterfront:

The Waterfront consists of several restored wharves in the harbour of Table Bay. Here you will find a huge shopping mall, the Two Oceans Aquarium, two markets with African Art, the South African Maritime Museum and much more. Many restaurants and cafes invite you to sit and relax. There is live music at every corner, and excursion boats offer harbour trips. http://www.aquarium.co.za

Robben Island:

This Iland became famous through its most prominent prisoner, Nelson Mandela, who spent more than 20 years there. Daily guided tours are offered.

Cape Town beaches:

A few minutes’ drive from the city centre will bring you to the most beautiful beaches such as Clifton, Camps Bay, Bantry Bay and Green Point, to name just a few. All water sports are offered there and the beaches are first class – as well as the property prices, unfortunately.

Cape of Good Hope:

After a 25-minute drive from Cape Town you arrive at the Cape of Good Hope via the magnificent and spectacular Chapmans Peak Drive. Here you can take a walk through an 8000 ha nature reserve that offers impressive coastlines and beaches, Rocky Mountains, magnificent views of the sea and a great variety of plants and animals.

Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden:

A paradise for botanists. Apart from the beautiful indigenous flora and lovely lawns you can enjoy high-quality summer concerts.
