| Table Mountain | ||||
With its extraordinarily rich, diverse
and unique flora, this singular landmark is what makes Cape
Town immediately recognisable all over the world. Its rugged
cliffs, steep slopes and sandy flats, make Table Mountain a
phenomenal natural, scenic, historical, cultural and recreational
asset for locals and visitors alike. Nowhere else in the world
does an area of such awesome beauty and such rich bio-diversity
exist almost entirely within a metropolitan area, the thriving
and cosmopolitan city of Cape Town.

| Clifton | ||||
The windless beaches
of Clifton are probably Cape Town’s most famous and
you'll find them packed with beautiful and trendy people.
In summer these are the beaches to frequent if you want to
catch a glimpse of the rich and famous. Clifton has four adjoining coves each accessed via a walk down stone stairways between luxurious bungalows to white sands. Bikinis and sunbathing are more the order of the day than swimming, as the water of the Atlantic Ocean is often bracingly cold.

Camps
Bay |
||||
| The upmarket suburb of Camps
Bay has a typical village atmosphere and is home to some of
the trendiest restaurants and bars in Cape Town. It also boasts
one of the most beautiful beaches in Cape Town. Local life
is casual and in the evening residents and holidaymakers can
be found enjoying sundowners at the many sidewalk bistros and
restaurants on the sunset strip. Camps Bay is the perfect base from which to explore the wonders of the Cape. Tours of the Winelands, Robben Island and other attractions start and end here. And there are also aeroplane, yacht and helicopter charters on offer, as well as adventure tours such as sandboarding, mountain climbing, deep sea fishing, parachuting, paragliding and surfing. All can be booked via the concierge desk at 1 Loader Street.
