Characterized by long stretches, almost 50 kilometers to be exact, of windswept white sandy beaches, and probably the best views of Table Mountain in the area, the Blaauwberg area lies to the north of the city of Cape Town on the Northern stretches of the Atlantic Coastline.

With a recent boom in property development in the area, the Blaauwberg region has become the fastest growing area in the Greater Cape Town region, and has been established as the shopping capital of the Cape Town area. With an abundance of Shopping malls, restaurants and bars to offer hours of entertainment to any visitor or tourist, compliments by magnificent views and with the beaches within short distance, it is no wonder that the Blaauwberg region has become such a popular destination.

Make sure to stop over in Milner ton, a town of some sorts unto itself, while suburbs like Blouberg , Table View, Sunset Beach, and West Beach offer excellent conditions for kite- and wind surfers in the waters of Table Bay. Further along the Coast is Melkbostrand, which is home to the Keoberg Nuclear Power Station, which is the only one on the African continent.
