Hout Bay Beach

Hout Bay Beach is a famous one-kilometre stretch of gorgeous coast. With plenty of parking available, it draws many visitors and locals. Restaurants, fast food shops and curio shops surround the beach while you can buy beach chairs and ice cream from the local beach vendors. Out on the massive Hout Bay Beach, you can enjoy activities like surfing, swimming, kayaking and various sporting activities, including beach soccer, tag rugby, cricket and volleyball. Dogs are allowed on the beach and you won't need a leash, but this is only for the middle section of Hout Bay Beach. Lifeguards are on duty, ensuring that this picturesque beach remains among the safest in Cape Town.
