Cape Point
Cape Point
by Hilde Jüngst

If you’ve been up to the old lighthouse at Cape Point, or travelled on the Flying Dutchman Funicular, then you’ve most likely seen Diaz beach from above. But the view from sea level is equally enthralling, and well worth the 20-minute walk down (and 40 minute walk back up). This beach is right at the very tip of Cape Point, on the western side, and at the base of impressive 200 metre high cliffs. And while the currents here make swimming dangerous, a trip down to the beach will offer a whole new perspective on Cape Point – perfect for photographers and quiet romantic walks. There’s a beautiful wooden walkway that leads you all the way down, and most often you’ll have this little piece of paradise all to yourself.
