Seal Island – Located in False Bay just off the coast of Cape Town, Seal Island is a small granite landform absolutely swarmed with Cape Fur Seals. The piles of seals use the island as their main breeding ground and usually are left in peace. Humans have tried to inhabit the island, but failed, once as sealers in the early 20th century and later during World War II with an installation of a radar that was soon destroyed by the elements.

Boulders Beach – The beautiful Boulders Beach is one of Cape Town’s most visited beaches and the only place in the world where you get close to African Penguins. In 1982 a couple of these little crowd-pleasers settled on the soft white sand between the large granite boulders that protect the beach from wind and large, stormy waves, and currently, the population is estimated between 2,000 and 3,000 birds. Boulders and its surrounding beaches now form part of the Table Mountain National Park Marine Protected Area, thus ensuring the beaches are safe and clean, and the penguins protected.

Victoria & Alfred Waterfront – V&A Waterfront is a busy retail, dining and entertainment district with gifts and design stores, diverse museums, and a restaurant scene that covers burger joints to posh bistros. Family-friendly attractions include the towering Cape Wheel ride, the Two Oceans Aquarium, and the ClockTower Playground, which centers on an 1882 redbrick tower. Boats to the Apartheid-era political prison on Robben Island depart nearby.
