Rising above Cape Town and stretching out toward the Atlantic, Signal Hill offers some of the most breathtaking views in the city — especially at sunset, when the sky glows over the ocean and Table Mountain casts its long evening shadows. It’s an easy drive to the top, making it one of the most accessible panoramic viewpoints in the area.

For those seeking a bit of thrill, Signal Hill is also the launch point for tandem paragliding — an unforgettable way to experience Cape Town from above as you glide gently down toward the Sea Point promenade. Even for those staying firmly on the ground, the scenery alone is worth the visit, with clear views of Lion’s Head, the city bowl, and the coastline unfolding in every direction.
