A Summer holiday is near; lying by the pool, the sound of the waves from the garden to your lounge and the sun caressing your skin. A joyful sound of your kids splashing in the water is the perfect background for your daydreams that float across your mind. When it’s time to cool down, you can immerse yourself in the cool blue of the pool and lose yourself in the breathtaking views of the mountains and the Atlantic beyond. As the sun sets, and the salt dries on your skin, your nap prepares you for the tasty treats that await at one of the Capes many fabulous restaurants.
Cape Town’s Tidal Pools
Then, when it’s time to gather the family for an outing, visit one of Cape Town’s tidal pools just a few minutes’ drive away; spectacular swimming spots invite you to sit on the rocks and sip on a cool drink, while the kids play safely in the gentle ocean tides. When they tire of the waves, share in their delight as they explore the rocks around the tidal pools, and discover sea creatures – starfish, crabs and silvery shoals of tiny fish that make their home in the crystal pools.
Salt water has been shown to have many spa-like benefits, so for that skin-tingling boost and radiant glow, take a dip in the tidal pool, like the locals do come rain or shine, and feel the difference.
Great Restaurants Nearby
Swimming always stirs up the appetite – just a hop, skip and a jump from the tidal pools to the summer lunches on offer. From Maiden’s Cove in Camps Bay, with its cinematic views of the Twelve Apostles and breaching whales near the shoreline, hang out with the fashionistas and celebrities that frequent the strip as you tuck in to a seafood platter. Emerge from Dalebrook Pool in Kalk Bay and spot the local artists and musicians at Dalebrook Café just across the road. This café serves delicious breakfasts and lunches, as well as great coffee and fresh juices.
