Cape Town area is a paradise for outdoor lovers: sea and mountain (1000m high) with a Mediterranean climate offers great hiking, biking and sea sport activities: the strong wind create nice wave for surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers. If the water is too cold on the West side, hands on to Muizenberg for much warmer waters: east from Cape point, its gets already some warm currents from the Indian Ocean. Get a relax or challenging walk through the wonderful Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden where you can enjoy the smell the plants making your cosmetic in their Fragrance part!.
And directly from Cape Town city, hike Lions head for the sunset, and reserve a day for table mountain and Devil’s peak, just avoid to do it both on the warmest day ever recorded (42 C) as I did, the 3L water were hardly enough…
