2 Best Sights in Noordhoek, South Africa

This collection of restaurants, art galleries, and boutiques is a great place to spend a few hours or get a quick bite to eat while passing through. There's a deli with everything you could possibly need for a picnic or to stock a self-catering cottage, and The Roost coffee shop is a popular gathering point for the multitudes of cyclists who traverse Chapman's Peak on weekends. The Noordhoek Village Hotel is on the property, and there's a hot yoga studio and an open-air market (mostly food) on Wednesday evenings.

Nestled behind Chapman's Peak—and minutes away from Noordhoek Beach—Café Roux is an unpretentious outdoor café with great homemade food and fabulous South African wines at competitive prices. You can get a taste of rural Cape Town life in "paddock" country here.
