CAPE POINT

Cape Peninsula, Southwestern tip of Africa
 NATURE
       

From its rugged, rocky outcrops and sheer cliffs to the fynbos-covered plains, Cape Point holds much in store for visitors to these shores. Enjoy a full day of discovery with spectacular views, fine food, remarkable encounters with nature, spell-binding history and memories to treasure for ever.

The natural beauty of the Table Mountain National Park is pristine and especially well conserved at Cape Point. Take a leisurely stroll down to the beach, or hike the many walking trails. 

Taste local seafood fare from the Two Oceans Restaurant, perched high above crashing waves, and take in sweeping views of False Bay.  Alternatively enjoy a light meal or plan for a picnic at the Two Oceans Food Shop.

Experience an exhilarating ride in the funicular, which rises 238 metres above the ocean to where the old lighthouse keeps watch over the seas. The views from here are spectacular.

At Cape Point’s curio shops, such as the Logo Store or Lighthouse 5, visitors will find just the right souvenir, work of art or antique maritime ornament to rekindle memories of adventures at the south-westernmost tip of Africa. 

Adventure activites include swimming, diving, angling, hiking, surfing and bird-watching. Cape Point’s fynbos plains are home to 1,200 species of indigenous plants, various small mammals including the red lynx, many antelope including the rare Bontebok, and ostriches and zebras.
