Afro-Chic Guest House

One of the most photographed scenes in the world is the awe inspiring panorama of Table Mountain rising over the blue waters of Table Bay. To see it for yourself, come and visit the 48km of white, sandy beaches of Blouberg, which is know as one of the country?s top surfing and angling spots.


The Blouberg area has a number of restaurants catering to every taste and budget, from fast-food outlets for those on the run, to gourmet restaurants serving a variety of delicious dishes. Whether you prefer seafood, pasta, Sushi, Thai, Chinese or just some delicious Spareribs you will be sure to find a restaurant to tantalise your taste buds.

Table View and Blaauwberg boast with sandy white beaches bordering the Atlantic Ocean. Whale watching is very popular and whales are often spotted here, not only during whale season (September, October), but also as early as February and March due to the rich feeding in the colder Atlantic waters.

For the wine lover, Durbanville offers an exclusive and unique Wine Valley route. Few people realize it, but the Durbanville area was one of the first areas to make wine and some of the farms had been proclaimed as early as 1698. Currently there are 9 wine producers in the area, which also makes for an excellent country drive whilst visiting the farms.
Fertile soils, rain to sustain dry land vineyards and hills facing just the right way, make these farms suitable to a variety of cultivars. All of the above mentioned in combination with a cool climate (wind from the sea), cause the grapes to ripen slowly and this is just what is needed to intensify the wine's flavors. White wines are particularly high on the list and almost all the farmers offer wine tastings and meals, ranging from top quality cuisine to light al fresco lunches.

Undoubtedly one of Cape Town�s top tourist attractions, Green Market Square with its funky market stalls.

Green Market Square is Cape Town�s most popular outdoor market and never fails to delight both visitors and locals. With stalls carrying virtually anything from clothing, curios, collectibles and crafts to artwork, jewellery, books, leatherwear and other fine treasures amid the obligatory curios and tourist souvenirs set out haphazardly across the cobbles. Naturally, prices are subject to discussion, and haggling is part of the passing parade of entertainment.

Visit National Monuments, discover shipwrecks off the Blaauwberg coastline or find yourself in a hidden cultural village!

Blaauwberg derives its name from the battle of Blaauwberg, which was fought in August 1806. Other national monuments in the area include the Old Wooden Bridge, (build around 1901). Milnerton Lighthouse, Robben Island Museum, South African Air Force Museum and Ons Huisie which has been declared a national monument on the 17.07.1987. Today it is a lovely and cosy restaurant and serves anything from Fish to Poultry and red meat. Many hundreds of ships have been lost in the shallow of Table Bay since the seafaring nations began to use the bay in the 15th Century. The Bushmen (San) are the Southern Africa�s original inhabitants, long before the arrival of the Bantu-speaking and European settlers. Many San intermarried with the Khoi-Khoi. Thus the word Khoisan began.



One of the most significant and symbolically charged pieces of land in South Africa, Robben Island guards the entrance to Table Bay.

The name hails from the Dutch word for seals, "robbe". The island was home to Nelson Mandela who was imprisoned there along with other political prisoners. Now a living museum, the island and its ghosts are visited voluntarily. As a place of history, education and insight into South Africa�s past, this is an essential excursion. The return boat trip (half an hour each way) to this World Heritage Site and a guided tour around the museum by an ex-inmate is an experience never to miss.
