Visit Bloubergstrand Beach for the most enjoyable time

Bloubergstrand Beach, situated in the picturesque Blouberg neighbourhood, has many exciting recreational options for you to enjoy. Anything from kite flying and paddleboarding to traditional beach activities like volleyball and sunbathing ensures everyone can find something they like.

One of the best places to take in the breathtaking panorama of Table Mountain is from a long, straight stretch of beach, where kite surfers and windsurfers gather to enjoy the area's legendary high winds. As the wind picks up, the beach at Bloubergstrand becomes a rainbow of colours as children watch their kites soar.

Experience the laid-back atmosphere

Bloubergstrand Beach is the perfect place to let your adventurous spirit run wild with its pristine white sands, crystal clear waters, and spectacular views of Table Mountain. The pace of life is slower and more relaxed, giving one the time and space to appreciate the little things in life, like the sound of waves crashing on the shore or the sight of seagulls soaring overhead.

A tranquil location to enjoy some kite surfing

Kite-surfers worldwide flock to Bloubergstrand Beach, primarily due to the high winds that whip over the water. The area's unusual topography is responsible for these winds, generated when air is compressed and accelerated through a mountain pass and into the ocean.

Yet the winds aren't the only thing that makes Bloubergstrand beach great for kite flyers. The beach is nice and clear, so kite flyers don't have to worry about getting in each other's way when they take to the water. The beach is a sight, especially with Table Mountain as a backdrop. There's nothing quite like watching a flock of colourful kites soar into the sky against the backdrop of a majestic mountain.

Delight in exciting water sports activities 

Adrenaline enthusiasts will find Bloubergstrand Beach has some of the world's top surfing and kiteboarding conditions. Catch a wave like a pro and feel the thrill of carving through the water, or fly a kiteboard high above the waves and feel the rush of air as you fly through the air. 

Another way to have paddleboarding is the ideal way to explore the coastline while taking in the brisk air of the ocean, and it is an excellent option for those seeking fun. Riding the waves on a wide, sturdy board, you can take in the beautiful scenery. Enjoy the sunshine and peace of this idyllic beachfront destination while you work on your balance and core strength.

But the fun continues; Bloubergstrand Beach also offers beach volleyball, sunbathing, and whale-watching opportunities. And when you're ready to take a break from the water, explore the quaint restaurants, cafes, and shops that dot the nearby streets.
