Clifton, Cape Town

Clifton, darling, is where luxury meets the sea. This exclusive enclave is home to some of the priciest real estate in South Africa, perched majestically on the Clifton cliffs with unparalleled views. A coveted address, it draws families in search of their perfect home, young professionals looking to live in style, and even those seeking a serene seaside retreat for their golden years.

While Clifton boasts some of the most desirable permanent residences, it’s also a sought-after holiday haven. The famous quartet of beaches here is undoubtedly the showstopper – each one tucked between dramatic granite boulders and offering soft, almost pure white sand that’s simply irresistible. These beaches, shielded from the relentless south-easterly winds, make for perfect spots to relax, surf, or take a leisurely swim. And, when the tides shift, the elusive fifth beach, Moses Beach, makes an occasional appearance, adding to Clifton’s mystique. Whether you’re basking in the sun, enjoying watersports, or drifting in a yacht with friends, Clifton is undeniably the crème de la crème of Cape Town’s coastal retreats.
