Scarborough Beach is the jewel of Cape Town in the tiny hamlet of Scarborough. This beach is just a walk away from Cape Point Nature Reserve and is famous for surfing. It has long sandy beaches, crystal clear water of the Atlantic ocean, and a spectacular backdrop of the rocky mountains.
Beach lovers can enjoy rock pools, mesmerizing sunsets, surfing, swimming, sun-basking, or a quick stroll. Especially when the afternoon breeze kicks in, travellers can also try windsurfing and kite surfing. One needs to stroll a little inside the village for restaurants to have some snacks and food. Swimmers should take extra precautions to tackle the rip currents.
