About

Duynefontein is a long, wild stretch of sand near Melkbosstrand and Van Riebeeckstrand on Cape Town's West Coast, close to the Koeberg power station. It stays quiet compared with the city's busier beaches, which is exactly why dog owners favour it: there is space to walk for miles and let a dog run off-leash without crowds. Locals also use it for fishing and long, peaceful coastal walks.

Note from SitnStay: Reported by several independent sources as a favourite off-leash walking spot for dogs, with the shorter Duynefontein-to-Koeberg stretch commonly recommended for calmer outings.
