Welcome to the Western Cape

From George and Mossel Bay to Worcester, Cape Town and Yzerfontein, the magnificent Western Cape beckons. It promises endless beauty, relaxing times with family and friends and if you're in the mood for it, pulsating energy.

An extremely diverse province, the Western Cape boasts natural beauty in spades, wine farms, big city vibes and small towns to fall in love with.

Getting to know the Western Cape better

The Western Cape is a winter rainfall area, meaning that summer days are made for sunshine and beach vibes. The city of Cape Town offers coastal homes in various areas to suit every family and lifestyle, and various parts of the province offer an array of different settings and ways of life.

From the opulence and luxury of Camps Bay and Bantry Bay to the family-orientated lifestyle offered in Blouberg and Milnerton, there's something for everyone. You can choose to live in the luxury of the Atlantic Seaboard, the country ambience of Durbanville or Kuils River or the suburban vibes of Pinelands or the Southern Suburbs. Whatever you're looking for, the Western Cape has somewhere where you'll feel right at home.

Other popular coastal areas include False Bay, Kommetjie and the Western Seaboard, among many others. Those looking for a quieter way of life in the Western Cape can choose towns further away from the Mother City in various directions, such as Knysna, Wilderness, Swellendam or Worcester.
