 Hout Bay & Llandudno HOUT BAY or Houtbaai – the bay, the beach and the valley – with Llandudno just over the Suikerbossie hill is unique in South Africa. A suburb of Cape Town but unlike any other suburb. Hemmed in by the marine and land elements of Table Mountain National Park, its history is as old as South Africa's earliest colonial history while remnants of the first inhabitants predate recorded history. At its north-eastern end – Oranjekloof Nature Reserve and Constantia Nek – it abuts the south side of Table Mountain. To the north, it nestles against the Twelve Apostles chain. To the east, Hout Bay abuts Constantiaberg. And Hout Bay and Llandudno's unique features – Klein Leeukoppie, Karbonkelberg and the Sentinel – rise majestically from the sea to the west. Hout Bay and Llandudno have only three access roads – arguably among the most scenic in the world – Victoria Drive from the city centre, Constantia Nek from the southern suburbs, and the world-famous Chapman's Peak Drive from the south. So... driving to and from the rest of the world is pure pleasure! Click here for more information on attractions and businesses in the area.
