I'm not sure if it is the soft white sandy beaches, the views from Table Mountain, the outrageously wonderful colours that paint the walls of homes in the community of Bo Kap, or the great music, delicious cuisine and outstanding wines that make this a magical place. From early morning and late into the night, beachside terraces are alive with the enthusiasm of locals and tourists alike. I've only just begun and I still have to see the Cape of Good Hope, a whole load of penguins at Boulder Beach, seals and porpoises, plus baboons and maybe even a cage dive with the great white sharks. Why not!
