Camps Bay And Fine Accommodation

Cape Town is considered around the world to be one of the most desirable places of leisure. Situated directly between the Atlantic and Indian oceans, the city sits on the Cape Peninsula, a cape that outcrops into the meeting zone of the two seas. In the middle is Table Mountain, a huge attraction to visitors from around the Globe.

This town’s appeal is a result of its fundamentally attractive features. The Victoria & Alfred waterfront has a large mall and a highly active harbour. This is a Mecca for tourists, as it has elements of the countries heritage in great abundance and one can charter ferries to the nearby Robin Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 25 years before his release in 1990. One can cruise along the railway line through the Southern Suburbs, which runs along the eastern side of Table Mountain. On this journey, one will pass the world-renowned observatory and the Newlands rugby and cricket stadiums where some world sporting events take place. On the route, one can change their form of transport and visit Kirstenbosch Gardens where many exotic and indigenous plant species can be observed and photographed. If one continues on the railway, they will meet the Indian Ocean, in the form of False Bay, which is home to Muizenberg and Simons Town, both charming towns with friendly locals.

A good place to find accommodation would be Camps Bay, a mountainside suburb just over the hill to the CBD and adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. Here there are a myriad of delightful cottages, villas, apartments and guesthouses that one might rent for a short period whether they prefer self-catering or bed & breakfast style accommodation. There is access to shops and video stores and the nightlife is superb since there are a number of cozy clubs and restaurants scattered across the beachfront. One may find accommodation all the way up the mountain down to the very beach itself. There is also a selection of luxurious hotels. One may sit idly on the long stretch of sandy beach and sip a cocktail while they read their favourite novel or magazine. Camps Bay is truly an all-accommodating place of leisure and can be considered by even the most scrutinizing of travel skeptics. There is a wide selection of transport services, shuttles and guided day tours to any place of interest across the peninsula. A person could visit Cape Point, the very southern most tip of Africa, and eat seafood at the restaurant on the mountain peak – that is right on the point - where the views are indescribably blissful. One could go shark cage diving and see the legendary great white shark, that are known to grow up to and over 6 meters long. One must not forget that the Cape Town wine industry is responsible for some of the world’s finest wines, which are available on a trip through the wine route or sometimes at the local Camps Bay restaurants, hotels and stores.

Whatever ones desire, much excitement, fun and exhilaration can be attained should one choose to accommodate themselves in Camps Bay, Cape Town. Anyone can discover a new understanding of peace & tranquility at the harmonious paradise that is Camps Bay.
