Clifton Beach
The sugar-white sands of Clifton Beach lie between the Atlantic Ocean and the opulent houses of Cape Town's "Millionaire's Row." Clifton attracts the seen-and-be-seen crowd as well as surfers looking for an adrenaline rush. The four beaches are separated by enormous stone boulders. Due to its advantageous location on the western slope of Table Mountain, which shields it from Cape Town's infamously frigid winds, this is one of the city's busiest beaches. Nonetheless, the water is consistently chilly throughout the year, discouraging many swimmers.
It's simple to move between the many sandy stretches until you discover the atmosphere that best appeals to you. Several locals and visitors come here to enjoy the sunshine and take in the breathtaking views, and there are a few wonderful guesthouses in Cape Town that are just a short distance from Clifton's sandy beaches. Swimming is possible, although most people might find the water to be a little frigid; stick to the other beach activities instead!
Gay-friendly, dog-friendly, youthful, romantic, and family-friendly,... there is truly a beach to suit every preference. You can play for free at Clifton Beach every day of the year. The M6 roadway provides access to these sparkling white coastlines for motorists.
