Cape Town's Best Kept Secrets

Most tourists on Cape Town vacations will visit the city's major sights, which are indeed well worth seeing. But in addition toTable Mountain, the V&A Waterfront and Cape Point, are a host of fantastic and interesting places that only the locals tend to know about. Here are some of the city's best kept secrets...

Kalk Bay: A Fisherman's Corner

Taking a drive along the False Bay coast and visit Kalk Bay is one of the most pleasant ways to spend a day on Cape Town vacation. A sleepy fishing town about 45 minutes outside the city centre, you can spend a good few hours wandering around this little village. You can enjoy lunch at a seaside restaurant, where fresh seafood straight from the ocean can be munched under the hot sun.

After a scrumptious lunch, you can peruse the many quaint antique shops lining the main road. And once you've satisfied your curiosity, you can make your way to the ice cream parlour where home made ice cream of all flavours will top off a fantastic summer afternoon.

The Old Biscuit Mill: Organic Market

Each Saturday morning, Capetonians flock to an industrial warehouse in the small suburb of Salt River just outside the city centre. Salt River is not an area that tourists are likely to visit, lying just below the world renowned District Six area. But they're missing out on one of the most fashionable affairs of the week. If you find yourself near the city centre one Saturday morning while on a Cape Town holiday, you should pay a visit to the Old Biscuit Mill. Go hungry, for an array of delicious organic food awaits you.
