Strand area
The Strand is a popular holiday resort, that some call “the Riviera of the Cape.” In the heart of the Western Cape Winelands it is bordered by 35 kilo-metres of pristine white sandy beaches and the safe, balmy waters of False Bay. The weather is typical Mediterranean and the cool breeze from the sea often keeps the high summer temperatures under control. The beach is popular for surfing, kite surfing, wind surfing etc. Depending on the time of year the water temperature can vary but during summer it is very pleasant. Rock and boat fishing is good and fresh fish can be bought directly from the fishing boats.
Staying in the Strand you have the luxury of many worlds as you are close to Cape Town and have access to many scenic day trips. The winelands are just around the corner and there is a good mix of upmarket and family restaurants.
