The Best Parks in Cape Town, South Africa
Whether you are a walking the dog or just meeting a friend, Cape Town offers a wide range of parks, each having a beauty all of its own. So take a moment to stop by and soak up the scenery on your next trip to the Mother City.
1. Zandvlei Recreational Park
Park
For hot summer days lounging by the waterside, Zandvlei Recreational Park is bordered on all sides by a large river and estuary. This means you get all the relaxation and tanning opportunities of a beach without the crowd. Due to its proximity to water, the park has a wide range of water-based activities such as sailing, canoeing, fishing and windsurfing. With small grassy embankments dotted around the wetland, it makes Zandvlei the ultimate spot for a picnic or a braai (the South African equivalent of a BBQ).
