Fish Hoek Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Cape Town, located in the False Bay area of Cape Peninsula. It is known for surfing, kayaking, sunbathing, fishing and angling. There is a children’s play area at the Southern end. Between June and November, Southern Right Whales can be spotted here.
As the Indian ocean is much warmer than the Atlantic, swimming is allowed throughout the beach and is safe with lifeguards on constant duty. In addition, there are small stalls located around the beach which sell knick-knacks and food items.
