Vacation Packages

The inhabitants of Cape Town and its visitors are very fortunate for the magnificent sunrises and sunsets that can be enjoyed in and around the city.

The ideal venue for viewing these wondrous sunsets is usually a chartered yacht or boat. The tourist industry in Cape Town is thriving and the yacht basin is home to many vessels which take sightseers out to enjoy the special experience of a sunset tour. Many of these tours leave the harbour and venture out into the Atlantic Ocean and usually anchor near Clifton or Camps Bay beach to watch the sun set.

There is a wide selection of crafts to choose from when considering a sunset tour. Some are big while others are small but all are well equipped to take tourists out to sea. The harbour has the largest dry-dock in the southern hemisphere.

If you are happier on dry land then there are other spectacular vantage points from which to view the setting sun. One example of this is from Lion’s Head. Tourists can prepare a basket and walk up the mountain an hour before sunset and enjoy an early supper while watching the sun disappear over the horizon.

The most comfortable place is probably one of the many cafes in Camps Bay’s, where you can request your favourite drink and watch as the sun sets. Or you could just take an unhurried amble down to one of Camps Bay or Clifton beaches with a picnic hamper and recline on the soft golden sand to watch the sun go down.

On very exceptional instances you may be fortunate enough to see the sun set and the full moon rise almost simultaneously for a beautiful and unforgettable sight.

Whether you are a local who has lived in Cape Town all your life or a tourist just passing through the city, a Cape sunset tour is the perfect way to showcase the beauty of the city and round off a hot summer’s day.
