Route overview
- V&A Waterfront — central harbour departure area.
- Green Point Urban Park — park stop near the stadium precinct.
- Sea Point Pavilion — Atlantic promenade arrival point.
- Camps Bay Beach — major beach stop beneath the Twelve Apostles.
- Hout Bay Harbour — harbour endpoint that avoids making the route dependent on Chapman’s Peak Drive.
The intended itinerary does not require Chapman’s Peak Drive or another toll road. Review the complete Maps route because an origin, return trip or provider reroute may change toll exposure.
AI-generated disclosure
Route data is AI-generated and has not been independently verified. Directions, duration, left-side-driving context, access, wind, weather, events, toll and parking information may be inaccurate or outdated.
Before you leave
Check current navigation, signs, wind, weather, visibility, events, access, closures and parking. If a coastal stop is impractical, remain on the signed through route and omit it rather than using an informal viewpoint or residential turnaround.
