Awesome beach to visit, as it is a Penguin Sanctuary. Entrance fee is payable, which means there is limited people on the beach and you get to swim with penguins on a well kept stretch of ocean. :)

Sightseeing

Breathtaking 360 degree views from the lighthouse - but there is a further lookout point, so keep going - it's worth it. Great restaurant to have lunch at. Also very informative reads along the way.

Lions Head is a quick climb - two hours max in total, from ground to summit and back. I personally climb it in just over an hour. The view from the summit is AWESOME! Pick a clear and windless day.

The (Secret) Gin bar. Cape Town's answer to a speakeasy. So worth the visit! During the day it's called Honest Chocolate and in the evening it's Gin Bar. Enjoy!
