From Robben Island, a repository of much of our history and
the site of former President Nelson Mandela's 27-year incarceration,
to the top of Table Mountain, where you can enjoy a dinner
offering superb sunset sea views and the sight of hang gliders
swooping 1,086 meters to the city and its beaches below, you
will find activities to satisfy your get-up-and-go nature.
Whether carving silvered slivers of crystal ocean off the
bows of a sea-going sunset schooner, baking in the oven heat
and sultry beauty of Clifton's powdered beaches, feeling your
heart fill your mouth as you defy universal laws and gravity
on one of Ratanga Junction's thrill-a-minute theme rides,
or soaking in the scenery afforded by winding, cliff-hugging
roads high above a deep and softly segueing ocean, you will
find Cape Town offering you stimulating experiences you'll
relive for years to come.
In a city offering, among many other energy-sapping activities,
shark diving, hiking, climbing, golf, white-water rafting,
surfing, sailing, deep-sea fishing, theme parks, clubbing,
sunset cruises, helicopter rides, game parks, karting, paragliding,
parachuting, bungi jumping, abseiling, and every sport boasting
a set of rules, Cape Town brooks no excuse for inactivity.
It offers all the activities you would find at any other holiday
destination, plus many unique to its peculiar geography and
insatiably adventurous spirit.
