You can surf, climb a mountain and go wine tasting on the same day. It is culturally rich as only a meeting point of Europe, Africa and Asia can be and this is reflected in the food. It's diversity is increased by being at the junction of the warm Indian Ocean and the cold South Atlantic, giving a huge range of marine life. On shore there is the greatest biodiversity on earth, with thousands of unique proteas and other plants. The wildlife includes baboons, ostrich and several varieties of antelope, including eland. The climate is Mediterranean with low humidity. Summer (November to March) is comfortably hot and mostly dry, as most rain falls in the winter. Cape Town / Kalk Bay/St James areaTwenty minutes to the South of Cape Town, towards Cape Point, lies Muizenberg, on the warm shores of False Bay. It was here that the Dutch lost the Cape to the British, in the battle of 1795. By the time of the Boer War, Muizenberg had become South Africa’s leading holiday resort. It is now a centre for surfing, eating and drinking, with miles of sandy beach, a theatre and a museum. Between here and St. James Cecil Rhodes had his country cottage, which is now a national monument. How to get thereFly to Cape Town - All major hire companies such as Imperial and Budget have offices at the airport - or contact www.capetowncarhire.co.za. St.James is a scenic 40 minute trip on Baden Powell Drive, round False Bay. From the airport take the N2 away from Cape Town, towards Somerset West. After 12.5 km take the R310 towards Muizenberg (away from Stellenbosch). This is Baden Powell Drive and the trip through the nature reserve round the bay is worth the small detour and often quicker than going into town. At Muizenberg continue round the shore a couple of km to St. James. Pass through most of St.James and the Terrace is on the right, between Kimberly Road and Leighton Road.
