We will start the day by heading through the Surf Mecca Beach of Muizenberg, before stopping in the bohemian feel Kalk Bay for a coffee in one of our favourite bakeries/coffee shops. At Kalk Bay, we will walk through this very quaint old holiday town filled with antique shops, galleries, craftsmen and vendors shouting as we go. Kalk Bay is a working fishing community filled with brightly coloured boats, some noisy seals, and even louder ladies hard at work processing the day’s catch!
From here, we will drive along the coast towards Simon’s Town, where we will search for our own rogue penguins – a splinter colony away from the crowded boardwalks over the main breeding site, on a beach known mostly to locals. We will take you on an educational and enlightening penguin walk on the walkways bordering the penguin sanctuary.
Next, we will head over to a few local restaurants in the heart of the seaside town of Scarborough. Here you will enjoy healthy, delicious snacks made using fresh ingredients that are ethically and locally sourced.
