Top Beaches In The Western Cape
Stunning beaches including many with Blue Flag status are within 20 to 60 minutes drive from Bellville’s guest accommodation.
1. Clifton 4th Beach
Chic, Sheltered Cove
Clifton’s most popular cove is famous for its soft white sand, turquoise water and glamorous crowd, and it’s nicely sheltered from the summer south-easter.
2. Camps Bay Beach
Palm Trees & Sunset Cocktails
Backed by the Twelve Apostles, Camps Bay pairs a long arc of sand with tidal pools, palm trees and a lively strip of bars and restaurants – perfect for sunset people-watching.
3. Bloubergstrand Beach
Classic Table Mountain View
On the West Coast, Bloubergstrand gives that iconic postcard view of Table Mountain across Table Bay, plus wide sandy beaches that are popular with kitesurfers and sunset walkers.
4. Muizenberg Beach
Surf & Colourful Beach Huts
Muizenberg is the laid-back surf hub of False Bay, famous for its gentle waves and bright Victorian bathing huts – warmer water and a relaxed, family-friendly vibe.
5. Boulders Beach
Penguins in a Granite Cove
Near Simon’s Town, Boulders Beach is world-famous for its resident African penguin colony, sheltered coves and boardwalks that let visitors view the birds up close.
6. Llandudno Beach
Quiet, Scenic Bay
Tucked between cliffs and giant boulders, Llandudno is one of Cape Town’s most beautiful, unspoilt beaches – popular with surfers and locals who come for sunset picnics and icy Atlantic dips.
7. Noordhoek Beach
Wild, Wide & Windswept
Reached via Chapman’s Peak, Noordhoek’s 5 km of untouched white sand feels wonderfully remote, ideal for long walks, horse-rides and dramatic seascapes.
8. Fish Hoek Beach
Warm, Family-Friendly Bay
On the False Bay side, Fish Hoek offers some of the warmest water, a gently sloping sandy beach, shark-net-protected swimming area and a relaxed, family-holiday atmosphere.
9. Glen Beach
Compact Surf Spot Between Cliffs
Just next to Camps Bay, Glen Beach is a small, sandy cove backed by bungalows and mountains, known for powerful beach-break waves and a more intimate feel than its glamorous neighbour.
10. Hout Bay Beach
Harbour, Mountains & Long Sand
Framed by dramatic peaks and a working harbour, Hout Bay’s long sandy beach is great for walks, horse-rides and easy access to restaurants, markets and the start of Chapman’s Peak Drive.
