Harbour Lodge, Hout Bay

The little fishing village with its unique combination of fishing harbour ambience and country atmosphere, its yacht club and long sandy beach on ocean inlet framed by mountains, is quite exceptionally beautiful. The world famous Chapmans Peak Drive which starts in Hout Bay is classed as one of the world most scenic drives.
The holiday resort of Hout Bay is positioned centrally in the Western Cape to form the ideal base from which to visit the Cape Peninsula tourist attractions as well as the Constantia, Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek Winelands. Central Cape Town, Table Mountain Cableway, the famous V&A Waterfront, the Robben Island ferry, the Waterkant Village and Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, are just a 20 minutes drive away.
There are excellent facilities to pursue a very wide range of activities from the most adventurous to the most relaxing. These include: Abseiling, Horse riding, spectacular hiking and cycling trails, bird watching at "World of Birds", Game Fishing, the whole gamut of aquatic sports, Sunset Champagne cruises, Boat trips to Seal Island and even Whale Watching. The list is virtually endless and for the less energetic it is a simply wonderful spot to relax, sip a glass of good South African wine, soak up the sun on some heavenly wind-sheltered beaches and just enjoy the great gifts of life.
The cosmopolitan selection ranges from simple "pizza parlours", family restaurants ideal for children, to those offering sophisticated international cuisine with seafood specialities that are truly world class.
Several shopping malls, speciality shops and excellent quality convenience stores around Hout Bay offer a wide selection of goods and services. The art galleries and curio shops, the Sunday market, the bonsai nursery and the pearl factory shouldn’t be missed.

Hout Bay is truly a great place to stay!
