Bantry Bay
It was such great weather today and so I brought my camera along my wander along the Atlantic ocean
and made a point of showing you how the other half lives
Bantry Bay is known to be the most wind free area in Cape Town. Secluded and protected, this exclusive area enjoys about 290 wind free days per year - a significant fact given Cape Town's windy climate
The foot path along the ocean
You can walk all the way from the V&A Waterfront to Camps Bay,
it is well used in the weekends and very busy every evening,
people exercising, walking, running, jogging, cycling etc

And all these have a slice of heaven :)

I got some sugar white sand between my toes on third beach and
then headed back to Green Point for a late afternoon drink
and landed at
the Grand Café & Beach
which is located at Granger Bay between the Radisson Blu Hotel
and the V&A Waterfront.
A once-abandoned warehouse has been transformed into a quirky
restaurant on a man made beach
this is the long pure white bar complete with cherub detail
A big deck with tables for lunch and dinner or Indian day beds to laze around on
and a beach bar
The Grand Cafe , although not nearly as glamarous ...
it reminded me of similar clubs in Spain
I enjoyed an hour of sipping my drink, watching people
and it got busier while I was there
That is the small man made beach of The Grand Cafe&Beach
I only had one glass of wine (R44 ) but heard that the food is average
and the place has some teething problems
The views are stunning all around
and you are literally a stone's throw from the stadium
