About

The southernmost stretch of Cape Town's Atlantic coast, Scarborough Beach sits a short drive from Cape Point on the way to the peninsula's tip. Surf here is strong enough for surfing and kitesurfing, and swimming is generally discouraged given sharks and currents, so most visitors come to walk rather than swim. The shore is part sand, part stone, and it is quieter than the Atlantic Seaboard's tourist beaches. Unleashed dogs are a common sight, with most visitors walking pets off-lead.

Pet policy

Note from SitnStay: A third-party beach guide states unleashed dogs are permitted and that most visitors walk their dogs off-lead; no official council policy page could be located for this specific beach.
