Guidebook for Cape Town
Parks & Nature
The white sand is lovely and hard making for an easy stroll. Very popular with runners and dog-walkers particularly at sunrise. While walking look out for the unexpected, during my years of walking there I have seen whales, dolphins and seals. Well worth the 15 minutes drive.

Sightseeing
Iconic and not to be missed, this historic site has been everything from a leper colony to the prison that held Nelson Mandela for 27 years. Only accessible by ferry from the V&A Waterfront and can be rather pricey. Get there early as trips are limited.

Arts & Culture
20km out of Table View in the City centre. Not the greatest or grandest in the world, but still keeps me going back. I love its setting in The Cape Town Gardens. Make a day of it...walk through the gardens, visit the fish pond, admire the small song birds and you can even buy peanuts from vendors to feed the squirrels, but more likely than not the flocks of doves will be the ones you end up feeding. You can even eat at the little gardens restaurant. Lots of lovely tall trees and park benches so even in the heat of summer you can enjoy the space.
