About Strand

Strand, on False Bay about 50 km from Cape Town via the N2, is the beach town everyone from Somerset West and Gordon's Bay pops down to for the day. The R44 hugs the coast if you're coming from Gordon's Bay side, and Cape Town International is a quick 45 km drive up the N2. Plenty of long-haul visitors roll in from way out, think Willowmore or Okiep, while locals do quick hops from Eerste River or across to Fish Hoek. Over 10 fast chargers nearby too. Best bit? That wide, safe swimming beach with the Hottentots Holland mountains right behind it.
