Kalk Bay

  • 4.6 out of 5 on Google (132 reviews)

A working fishing harbour with antique shops, cafés and a railway that runs along the water.

Why it’s worth it

Kalk Bay is still a working harbour, so the boats and the fish market are part of the scene, with antique and bric-a-brac shops and cafés along Main Road. Olympia, Harbour House and SALT are all here. It works well on foot, and the train from Muizenberg or St James follows the shore.
