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. 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. The plethora of restaurants with the beach just across the road gives you many things to do in Camps Bay, and being just over the hill (about 10 minutes drive) from central Cape Town, it's the perfect location for your summer away from home.

Cape Town, South Africa, City of Beauty and History  by Anne Sewell

I can just imagine the thoughts of Portuguese explorer Bartholemew Diaz, when he first discovered  the Cape in 1488.  Coming in from the sea to this glorious and mountainous landscape must have been truly wondrous!   Cape Town has come a very long way from its initial stages as home to the nomadic Khoi people and later to the Dutch settlers of Jan van Riebeek of the Dutch East India Company.  Now a truly international city of sprawling proportions, all the cliches that have been applied to Cape Town are completely true - the Mother City, The Most Beautiful City in the World....  all with that stunning and beautiful backdrop -  the amazing Table Mountain.

You will arrive in Cape Town at the Cape Town International Airport, and drive through a series of dilapidated, but still interesting, townships to the city itself.  So many international class hotels to choose from, both in the city and Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, and also in the surrounding suburbs.  Choose also from a range of quality bed & breakfasts, guest houses and self-catering villas and apartments, for the perfect holiday accommodation to suit you... read more
