A lot of visitors try to squeeze Boulders Beach, Cape Point, Kalk Bay and Simon's Town into one rushed day. If your schedule allows it, leave one morning unplanned on the False Bay side. The light is often clearest early, the coastal roads are quieter, and you have room to adjust if wind or weather changes your Cape Point plans.

This is the view across False Bay from the Simon's Town hillside. No filter, just a clear winter morning.
