Discovering the Waterfront - A fully functioning harbour and a first class shopping experience

When you start your journey of discovering the Waterfront, you very soon realise that you are in a shipyard. It started off as just a bunch of docks, dry docks and moorings. It has however undergone amazing improvements and it is one of the main tourist attractions today. Start with a brief history of the Waterfront if you like.

As for real estate, there is some very impressive waterfront property for sale . It was in one of these apartments that we lived for a few months and it was wonderful! One of out favourite places in South Africa. We were always within 5-10 minutes walk from all the shops in the Waterfront and cheers, champagne if we decided to, we could get into our car and drive anywhere in the 'mother city', Cape Town within minutes.

One of our kids all time best places to visit is the Two Oceans Aquarium which is situated right in the heart of the waterfront.

Inside the V&A Waterfront shopping centre there are over 400 stores and all of them are open till 9pm seven days a week. The choice of restaurants is vast.

We would recommend two restaurants:
The Baia being the best sea food restaurant in the cape and
Belthazar being the best steak house.

Go to www.waterfront.co.za for more info on other great restaurants.
