    Boulders Beach is world-famous for its colony of African penguins, living freely among the smooth granite boulders and turquoise shallows. A series of boardwalks lets guests observe them up close without disturbing their natural habitat. This gentle stop is always a highlight — a chance to see these delightful birds waddling, preening, and swimming in a sanctuary that feels almost tropical.

    Simon’s Town is a historic naval town with deep maritime roots and remarkable Victorian architecture.
