Muizenberg is the perfect surf spot, in summer is possible to see multiple surfers on the same wave. It just has the perfect relaxed vibe, cute coffee shops and great restaurants.

Hiking lions head is a great alternative to it's neighbour Table Mountain. It is a free of charge hike which can be done with entire families. Also perfect to go as a couple or with best friends. I would take lots of water with, wear a hat and apply sunscreen. Not suitable in a very windy day. The view at the top is amazing.

Kirstenbosch is the most exquisite place in town in my opinion. Just an amazing experience to walk through trees, relaxing on the grass while having a picnic, or atending a summer live concert.

This place is incredible! The beauty of nature is stunning there. I saw pinguins for the first time live there. They have managed to keep the national park safe for the animals, while still having visitors. The beach is stunning and reminds me of the Pacific. Stunning experience. Great photos and great memories.

Food Scene
Excellent Italian food, great price and location. The owner is a very pleasant Italian man who makes sure to greet all customers with a big smile. It's a simple restaurant with delicious food and service is good as well. I am the kind of person that would much rather eat great food in a simple place than blend food in a fancy/expensive restaurant.

Food Lover's Market is a chain of fresh produce super market with coffee shops and restaurant all over the country. My favourite one is the Sushi Bar they have in town where you can get half price sushi all Saturday from lunch time.

If you want busy town lifestyle, a place full of people from over the world, all styles of music, a place to dance and have fun, Long Street is for you. I haven't ventured to this part of town yet, as I'm more of a carpe diem kind of person and enjoy the sun, but if you a party animal, or enjoy having a night out this is the place.

Vintage cinema with a funky vibe (1949 - ). In the heart of town. Most interesting movies. Alternative cinematography. I haven't tried their coffee shop food as I'm very strict about eating in spotless places, but one could always give it a try, or go for one of their movie nights with restaurant meal included.
