Beautiful beach but very windy.
Great place to take your dogs for a run. So much open space for them to go wild.

Bloubergstrand beach is one of the best places for a full view of Table Mountain. The West Coast is gorgeous, and this long stretch of beach is great for walks, swims, or just lounging if the wind isn't blowing.

Here's your answer for a relaxing outing. You can drive along, walk the promenade or the beach or just park your car right next to the beach facing the ocean and the beautiful view of Table Mountain, Cape Town and Robin Island while watching the hordes of colorful Kite Surfers, Paddle Boarders and Surfers. Plenty of eateries around.

Well, aren't they all? No, not a view like this. The icon of Africa sits sedately across the bay, almost making you forget you have a beautiful sandy beach and blue sea to enjoy, often all to yourself.

This beach has spectacular views of Table Mountain and the coast line. There is always something happening like kite surfing, surfers, families enjoying a day at the beach, people out for a run or just chilling on the beach. There are plenty of shops, restaurants and the famous Blue Peter Hotel where you can chill with excellent views of the beach. It is a great place for family outings or group events.

This is a wonderful place to see the sunrise or set.
Great for photographers to take a picture of Cape Town and Robben Island
There are lots of kite surfers - the place can be windy.
There is a wonderful promenade that you can walk on or alternatively you can walk on the beach.
We walked in the morning from the fuel station (near KFC) down to the end of the promenade and found a lovely coffee stop, which we did take away, followed by a breakfast place called 'Ons Se Huisie.' Breakfast was under R50 / €3
If you are based /located in or near Cape Town City Central Area, then rather stay overnight in blouberg and experience the sunrise and sunset.
The traffic into and out of blouberg in the morning and afternoon is horrendous - and you can spend an hour or more just sitting in traffic.

A great, clean beach and wind means it is perfect for kite surfing. The views back to Cape Town and Robben Island are excellent.

You can't top this view, no matter where you stay in Cape Town. What a magnificent silhouette of Table Mountain- all the time. The area is clean and people spend their days jogging and walking, which mean they feel relatively safe.

Hi, anywhere from Sunset Beach to Bloubergstrand is great to stay. There's lots of AirB&B's and guesthouses or kitehouses in the area. Look at West Beach and Eden on the Bay as well. The my City Bus service operates all along these areas to Cape Town and the Waterfront. Easy for you to travel and go shopping. Around Marine Circle and Blouberg Road you will find nice pubs and restaurants like Yo Goodness, News Café, Carlucci's and Jerry's Burger bar.

I’m an amateur photographer, is it safe to go early morning and during sunset when there’s no crowd?
