Camps Bay is a trendy upmarket suburb of Cape Town and one of South Africa's premier tourist accommodation destinations.
Camps Bay, nestling below the magnificent Twelve Apostles mountains, has one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in the world. The beach has been rated as a Top 10 Beach by the UK Sunday Times and voted as the Top Beach in South Africa by readers of the local Sunday Times.
Camps Bay is 30 minutes from the airport, 10 minutes from the Cape Town city centre and Table Mountain, 20 minutes from the V & A Waterfront and close to premier golf courses.
Accommodation options are generally upmarket. Most accommodation is within walking distance of the beach and most offer magnificent views across the Atlantic Ocean
Camps Bay offers a wide range of activities, including shopping, walking, hiking, swimming, surfing, tennis, squash, cycling. The intimate Theatre on the Bay offers superb productions throughout the year.
The beach is lined with over 25 restaurants and bars. You may have to book some in advance, particularly at the height of summer. The atmosphere is seductive and you should aim to see at least one sunset from here during your stay. Look out for paragliders who take off from Lion's Head to land on Camps Bay beach for sundowners.
