Area Info
Known affectionately as the "Republic of Hout Bay" by locals due to its limited access points, this charming suburb offers a unique and timeless beauty, despite being just a 20-minute drive from Cape Town's city centre. Staying in Hout Bay immerses visitors in its vibrant atmosphere, enhancing any South African vacation. Originally a fishing village, Hout Bay has preserved its character, blending a working harbour with a relaxed, country feel. Its stunning long beach is nestled in a bay surrounded by mountains, attracting Capetonians on weekends for fresh seafood and seal sightings in the harbour.
Scenic drives connect Hout Bay to Cape Town via three routes: the breathtaking Chapman's Peak (a toll road), the inspiring coastal road over Suikerbossie Hill to Llandudno and the Atlantic beaches, and the Constantia Nek route offering views of False Bay and access to the Constantia Wine Route.
However, Hout Bay itself boasts numerous attractions. From hiking and cycling in the mountains to abseiling, game fishing, and various water sports like sea kayaking, there is plenty to do. Sunset champagne cruises to the V&A Waterfront, glass-bottom boat trips to Seal Island, and the World of Birds ensure visitors can easily spend their entire trip within this "republic", earning them the right to a coveted Hout Bay "passport".
