Sandy Cove/Cosy Bay

A small, sheltered cove between Bakoven and Llandudno on the Atlantic side of the peninsula, tucked inside Table Mountain National Park's Oudekraal Nature Reserve. Granite boulders wrap around a calm, rock-pool-like swimming area, reached by a short stairway down from free parking on Victoria Road. There is no shop or restaurant, and only portable toilets at the parking bays, so visitors bring their own food and water. The cove is a no-take marine zone, so fishing and collecting sea life are banned.
