At Fish Hoek Beach, a 2 km (1.2 mi) stretch of snowy white sand sweeps around a calm bay, providing plenty of tranquil spots to sit and catch some rays. You can try windsurfing, kayaking, or boogie boarding here, or look for restaurant facilities and a children's play area at the southern end of the shore. Put Fish Hoek Beach on your schedule, and learn what else deserves a visit by using our Cape Town day trip site.

  Favourite beach! Love the ice cream, park play area... beach can get full on the one side when the weather is really good. Water is always worth a dip! Security is excellent. Leave our things on the shore, go for a dip, come back to find our things exactly where we left them! Law enforcement, lifeguard, sharkspotters, shark net all on site!

  Nice family beach one side, dog walking on the other, just watch out for the 🐕 poo as some people think they dont have to pick up after their dogs. At high tide, very little beach so be sure to check the tides.
