Hout Bay beach

Victoria Avenue, Hout Bay, Cape Town, South Africa
Tel: +27 21 790 1264
 

This picturesque bay is nestled amongst steep mountain peaks. There is a busy fishing port, yacht club and beautiful stretch of white sand. The beach offers safe swimming and is popular with families. It is a busy, fun place with beach-goers walking dogs, flying kites or playing in the surf and sand. Sailing and fishing boats dot the blue waters. The morning's catch of fish and crayfish can be bought at Mariner's Wharf, the harbour front emporium. The complex also has a great seafood restaurant as well as gift, craft and shell shops. From the harbour you can take one of the regular boat trips to Duiker Island, which is home to a colony of Cape Fur Seals. Other places of interest in and around Hout Bay include the World of Birds, Hout Bay Museum and the spectacular, cliff hugging Chapman's Peak Drive.
