Simon's Town, home to the South African Navy is a vibrant seaside village with a waterfront buzzing with activity year round. Kayaking, sailing, deepsea charters, whale watching, white shark cage diving and sunset cruises launch from the busy harbour on the waterfront. Visit Simon's Town on any day and there's something for everyone. Interesting speciality and antique shops, buy stunning African curios and art on Jubilee Square, sit down to a delicious meal at one of the many fine restaurants and eateries or visit the pristine white beaches especially the penguin colony at Boulders Beach.
You will need more than a day to explore the rich naval history of Simon's Town.
