Western Cape

The Western Cape province on the southwestern tip of Africa is known as one of the world’s most beautiful places. One of South Africa’s top tourism destinations, it’s renowned for its contrasts: white beaches, rugged coast lines, rolling winelands, majestic mountains and the unique semi-desert Karoo. It’s coupled with a rich cultural and natural heritage and offers an unlimited variety of activities. Each of the six tourism regions (Cape Town, Overberg, Winelands, Garden Route, West Coast and the Cape Karoo) provide their own exclusive attractions. Some of the many must-see places in this year-round holiday destination are Table Mountain, Robben Island, Cape Point, Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, the Cango Caves, prehistoric rock art in the Karoo and Cederberg, the Knysna lagoon and whale watching in Hermanus or False Bay.
