Self-Catering/Holiday Rental Apartments in Camps Bay, Cape Town, South Africa

Camps Bay is an affluent suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. In the African winter it is a hotbed of European tourists as well as local South Africans down for a beach holiday.  It hosts beach volleyball tournaments as well as a refreshing nightlife.  Camps Bay is named after an invalid sailor, Ernst Friedrich von Kamptz, who settled there in 1778. The back of Table Mountain, the Table Mountain cableway and the Twelve Apostles Mountain Range form a backdrop to the Camps Bay family beach. The surf is strong here and there is no resident lifeguard, but a rescue helicopter patrols regularly. The grass verge flanked by the Camps Bay tidal pool offers shady, wind-free barbecue spots.  View map of Camps Bay Trendy Shops, restaurants, a hotel, chemist, banks and police station are close to the beach.  The best time of the year to visit Camps Bay as a tourist is November through March, allthough it can be a bit windy during November and December.
