Wedged between the Atlantic Ocean and the breathtaking face of the Twelve Apostles mountain range, you will find Camps Bay, a coastal suburb in Cape Town. Located only a short drive from Cape Town city centre, this suburb sits on the Atlantic Seaboard and is one of the most photographed stretches of the South African coastline.
What Is There to Do in Camps Bay?
Camps Bay is structured around a simple, walkable layout. Victoria Road, which is one of the area’s most frequented streets, runs parallel to the coast and is absolutely packed with restaurants and bars, with boutiques on one side and the beachfront promenade on the other. The area features something for everyone, from hiking and walking trails, water and beach activities to arts, culture, and local experiences.
When is the Best Time to Visit Camps Bay?
This stunning coastal suburb is a year-round destination, but the experience can shift with the seasons. Peak season is usually during the summer months (December – February), when Camps Bay can be best described as warm, lively, and busy. March to May is the sweet spot for regulars, who prefer to enjoy the remaining hot weather with fewer crowds. The winter months (June – August) offer quiet beaches and cooler, wetter weather. However, wintertime is also whale-watching season and the ideal time for hiking.
