Cape Peninsula, Cape Town, South Africa

The Cape Peninsula is the countryside south of the city including the pretty towns and villages of Hout Bay, Simonstown, St James and Kommetjie. From the hotels and lodges here you can visit the majestic Cape of Good Hope and the penguins at Boulders Beach with great ease. You are out of the city so if you enjoy being active, this is the place for you. Stroll or ride along long empty expanses of white sandy beach or hike among fynbos in Silvermist Nature Reserve. Why not combine a couple of nights here with a couple in the heart of the city to get the best of both worlds?
