Noordhoek Beach is one of the prettiest beaches in the Cape. It is near Cape Town; the wine routes are a short driving distance away. The beach is some five miles long and the town of Noordhoek is a quaint, picturesque village that lies at the feet of Chapman's Peak. The surrounding fauna and flaura will provide you with endless hours of exploration. One of the most popular attractions here, other than surfing and sunning, is horseback riding which usually ends with a splash in the ocean, horse and all!!!!!!!!!! The horses love it. Speaking of those, if you want to stay overnight, try the Appaloosa Horse Farm where the provide accommodations.

The water is very cold
