Attractions

Many rock pools make this a fun place for children to play around and a great spot for fishing. Surfing is popular as wave brakes are safe. Enjoy sensational sea and sunset views. Play a round of golf, go wine tasting, enjoy quad biking or zip lining in Grabouw, learn to surf at the local surf school, see Table mountain or go whale watching in Hermanus.
