Muizenberg Beach, Live Webcam, Cape Town

More info: Muizenberg beach is in the Western Cape in South Africa and stretches all the way round the top of False Bay to the Strand, a distance of over 20 km. It is considered to be the main surfing spot in Cape Town. Surfers’ Corner, at the end of the beach, is an excellent spot for novice or beginner surfers, and the area offers a number of local surf shops that hire out boards and offer lessons.

There is a shark watch service that operates from Muizenberg, signalling alerts when sharks come in proximity of bathers at the main beach and surfers at Surfer's Corner.

Above Muizenberg there is a line of steep cliffs that is very popular as a venue for rock climbing. However, certain parts of the cliff are off-limits to climbers when birds nest on the ledges.

Many of the buildings in the town of Muizenberg date from the resort town's heyday and are built in the art deco style. Rhodes' Cottage is a small house on the seafront that Cecil Rhodes bought as a holiday cottage and this was where he died in 1902. The house is preserved as a museum dedicated to Rhodes' life and is open to the public
