Blaauwberg Kite Beach - Blaauwberg Watersport
Blaauwberg Beach has a pleasant long and broad beach with great views of Table Mountain and especially of Robben Island.
The beach at Blaauwberg has two rocky points that extend out into the sea creating a small bay in which surfing, windsurfing and swimming are popular. The beach itself has nice white sand with a few pebbles scattered around.
To the left of the beach is Blaauwberg Beach which you can reach on foot and to the right there is a long section of beach which is great for walking. There are refreshments available at the Café which is situated behind the lifeguard stand.
