Camps Bay Area Cape Town: Camps Bay
Sitting on the Atlantic coastline about 6km from
Cape Town central and 30km from
Cape Town International Airport there are two roads leading to Camps Bay - the high road or the low road.
Both routes take about the same time to get you there and it is as much a matter of mood and preference as starting point as to which one you choose. Victoria Road is the low road continuing from the main road out of Cape Town, through Greenpoint and Seapoint and starting in Bantry Bay.
Victoria Road bends its way along the base of the mountain rock that drops steeply into the sea. Look up the slopes to see the high priced glass and concrete superhomes in the blocky and angular modern style that seems to have flourished on these rocky gradients.
Drop round a steady bend and there's Camps Bay: half a mile of beachfront where the competition and collaboration of nature and human has resulted in a lazy opulence that will switch your inner tempo from presto to largo.

Lines that pretty much capture the Camps Bay gist: a relaxed and visually marvellous strip of photogenic real estate sandwiched between the gently curving, palm edged bay and the back end of Table Mountain.

These essential pastimes will all be carried out on the landward side of Victoria Road of Camps Bay. Non-stop, it would take an average human 10 minutes to walk this whimsical commercial drag. But then that average human would be missing the point: there are many reasons to stop along this little route.
