Cape Town at a glance

From the iconic Table Mountain to the glittering Atlantic Ocean and everything in between, Cape Town is simply stunning. It is a thriving melting pot of the hustle and bustle of a cosmopolitan city, laidback vibes, and the glitz and glamour of a coastal paradise.

Capetonians have a veritable smorgasbord to choose from - world-class beaches, unrivaled shopping experiences, and enviable outdoor alternatives. The City boasts a thriving contemporary nightlife that attracts holidaymakers from across the world - visit any of the numerous chic nightclubs in the area and you are bound to see local and international celebrities enjoying a night out.

Those with a bit more adventurous tastes only need to drive a few minutes out of the city to experience some of the best hiking, climbing, and mountain biking destinations that South Africa has to offer. Numerous beaches in and around Cape Town offer first-class surf spots, such as the Llandudno and Noordhoek beaches - and a few secret spots only revealed to locals!

If you move to Cape Town it will be best to prepare yourself for the absolute foodie heaven awaiting you! The City itself boasts incredible restaurants, quirky alternatives, and hidden gems that serve up food steeped in the rich culture and history of the city's residents. This is not limited to the City either as a quick drive into the country will have you on the doorstep of world-renowned wine farms where you can drink a glass of the best South African wines while having a lazy lunch.

The suburbs in and around the CBD ensures that residents can enjoy the best of both worlds - working and playing in the city while returning to a much quieter suburb - and with so many suburbs closer to the coastline, there is an ambiance of a much smaller coastal town.

Property in the City is as varied as its residents - from the mansions overlooking the beaches, the hidden masterpieces on the slopes of the mountain, the uber-cool city apartments, and the family homes situated on tree-lined streets.
