Simon’s Town

Simon’s Town, situated on the shores of False Bay near Cape Town, has served as a significant naval base for over two centuries. This historic town is now a favored tourist destination, drawing visitors to its most renowned attraction: the penguin colony at Boulders Beach. One of only three mainland colonies of African penguins in South Africa, the beach offers a unique opportunity to observe these charismatic birds in their natural habitat. As you stroll along the boardwalk, the distinctive calls and waddling movements of the penguins create an unforgettable experience.
