Details on the area surrounding the property/accommodation |
|
| |
Hout Bay with its mountains, forests, beaches and spectacular scenery is indeed a magical place and has been long considered the "Jewel of the Cape". At its centre is the bustling harbour - a great place for a stroll, buying the catch of the day for an evening braai/BBQ, or heading off on one of the many boat trips, game fishing, sunset cruises or a trip to seal island. Relax on the beach, or for the more energetic try one of the many watersports on offer such as canoeing, kayaking and surfing. Take a trip along Chapmans Peak Drive, regarded as one of the worlds most scenic drives. For nature lovers maybe follow one of the many hiking trails, go horse riding, whale watching if the season is right, or pop into the World of Birds. The township tour at Imizamu Yethu will give you a fascinating insight into township life and the warmth of the people. |
