A visit to Cape Point to see firsthand where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet is our next stop en route to the highlight of the day: the penguin colony of Simon’s Town! These adorable birds call the nearby Boulders Beach home, and you’ll get a chance to see them up close.
We’ll then make our way back towards Cape Town, breaking up the drive with a visit to the beautiful Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens to stretch your legs and snap a few photos. Nestled at the foot of Devil’s Peak Mountain, it’s an absolutely gorgeous spot and well worth the visit.
