Signal Hill, with its amazing view, is the perfect spot for a sundowner. There are a couple of picnic tables, but most people are sitting on the ground on the side of the hill. Some sort of cover is spread out there, so you don’t really need a blanket to sit on.

Loved by locals and tourists alike for its scenery, Milnerton beach is famous for the lighthouse that guides boats into the picturesque Table Bay. Perfect for the snap-happy visitor, this beach boasts spectacular views of the mountain, dreamy sunsets and a palm fringed lagoon. Surfers and hand gliders should also ensure Milnerton is on their list as the waves found here inevitably draw large surfing parties, with summer surfers flocking down on a Wednesday morning to race into Big Bay. Some braver swimmers may even like to take a dip in the water, which is slightly cooler on this section of the coast, but perfect for a bracing ocean swim.

I don't have the words except that we love to walk and and enjoy the beauty mixed with historic buildings. Quote :There is so much to explore in terms of history inside the garden. Near the Adderley Street entrance a statue of Queen Victoria stands overlooking the Slave Lodge, while a statue of Jan Smuts looks on. Just over the road is the St George’s Cathedral, known as the “people’s church”—even during the apartheid era, all races were welcomed. It was also the starting point for the 30,000-strong demonstration led by Archbishop Desmond Tutu in 1989—and where Tutu coined the phrase ‘rainbow people’ to describe the diversity of South Africa’s population.
The Garden is also home to the South African Museum and the Cape Town Holocaust Centre here, where you can view exhibits about the atrocities suffered by Jews during World War II.
Beyond that, there are dozens of little historical treasures you’d easily miss if you weren’t looking for them. There is the Rutherford Fountain—which still stands on the original spot where it was erected in 1864—and the well pump embedded in an oak tree which dates back to 1842. There’s also the oldest cultivated tree in South Africa—a saffron pear, propped up on huge steel crutches.

The Long March to Freedom is a monumental procession of 100 life-size bronze statues and the largest exhibition of its kind anywhere in the world. The bronze artworks depict South African and international icons, some famous and others unknown, and tell the story of South Africa`s 350 year struggle for freedom and democracy.
The Long March to Freedom is a unique concept. A tour through the procession is an immersive and moving experience, connecting the visitor with the lives of the persons so vividly created in bronze. From the Khoi leaders of the 1600`s, to proud Xhosa and Zulu Kings, to the men and women who led the struggle through the dark years of apartheid, the procession is a sweeping narrative statement of South African pride in the country`s diverse history and cultures.
