| HOUT BAY BEACH |
|
Hout Bay beach spans from the beginning of Chapman’s Peak Drive following the curve of the bay to the picturesque Hout Bay Harbour. The beach is great for walking and horse riding. There are special times allocated for riding and for walking your dogs. The Chapman’s Peak end of the beach is better for sunbathing and the waves are usually fairly gentle for swimming.
The beach is a very popular launching spot for sea kayaks. When the wind blows, sunbathers can shelter next to the dunes and still enjoy a spectacular view of the bay, where dolphins and whales are a common sight. Just visiting Hout Bay itself offers you a great day out, with the World of Birds, interesting shops and great places to eat. The Italian Ice cream shop on the main road is a must after a day on the beach.
