ATLANTIC SEABOARDHANG OUT WITH THE BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE

Catch some rays, or a wave, at the beaches of Clifton, reputedly among

the loveliest and sexiest in the world.

SEE THE SUN SET

Sip a cocktail at one of the many bars and restaurants in Camps Bay and

watch the sun sink into the sea.

GET OUT ON THE MOUNTAIN

The Seaboard is not all about flash there are many hiking trails, mostly

in the lovely Table Mountain National Park. There are views aplenty, and

an abundance of incredible indigenous fauna and flora to appreciate.

EAT, DRINK AND BE MERRY

Some of the best restaurants and nightspots are on the Atlantic Seaboard

meander along the sea and have breakfast in Mouille Point, lunch in

Sea Point and enjoy cocktails followed by dinner in Camps Bay.

WALK, JOG, RUN

Capetonians get fit on the Sea Point Promenade. But dont feel pressured

the grassy areas are perfect for relaxing or a game of catch, and you can

wander literally for miles along the crashing seafront.

FIND A HIDEAWAY

All along this stunning coastline are little beaches with far fewer visitors

than youd expect. Park the car and walk along the road looking for the

signs. You never know what youll find...

HIT THE ROAD

You can drive along the coast all the way from Sea Point, past the flash

of Clifton, Camps Bay and L landudno, and beyond. Its an absoutely

breathtaking drive, especially as the sun is setting over the sea, and there

are several places to stop and take it all in. You can even continue the

whole way to the famous Chapmans Peak Drive.

The Cape is home to the

worlds richest floral kingdom,

and the only one foundentirely in one country. Fynbos

means fine bush, referring

to the small leaves which

are perfectly designed for

the warm climate. The Cape

Floral Kingdom is incredibly

diverse Table Mountain has

more than 2 200 species of

plant, more than the entire

United Kingdom, and types of

fynbos found just in the Cape

account for about one in five

of all African plant species.

The Cape Floral Region is a

World Heritage Site, and many

projects undertake to protect

this precious asset, with the

main threats being fire and the

invasions of alien species.

FYNBOS: THE PRIDE OF THE CAPE

With its dramatic backdrop

of the Twelve Apostles, part

of the Table Mountain range,

Camps Bay is a popular spot

for hang-gliding, paragliding

and micro-lighting. Contact

Cape Town Tourism for

operators, or watch the action

from the safety of terra firma.

TAKE TO THE AIR

Start at Sea Point and wind

your way along Victoria Road

(M6) all the way to Hout Bay.

With views stretching away

to the horizon, its utterly

magnificent. Youll pass the

dramatic peaks of the Twelve

Apostles, which form the back

of the Table Mountain range,

and the expanse of the Table

Mountain National Park keep

your eyes peeled to spot the

Upper Cableway Station.Continue past the roadside

craft market at Koel Bay, the

posh Twelve Apostles Hotel and

Spa towards Llandudno and

the peak known as Little Lions
