Destinations

Boulders Beach Penguin Colony

An hour south of Cape town, near Simon’s town on the Cape Peninsula, lies Boulder Beach – a sanctuary for rare African penguins that are about 45 cms tall and weigh around 3-5 kg. These penguins are an endangered species, that can only be found on the coast of South Africa and Namibia. The beach has a series of boardwalks from which visitors can observe the penguins at close range.

Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden

Nestled on the eastern slopes of Table Mountain, Kirstenbosch is one of ten national botanical gardens covering five of South Africa's six different biomes. Internationally acclaimed, the 528 hectares estate includes a cultivated garden and a nature reserve, and displays collections of indigenous South African plants including many rare and endangered species.
