Mouille Point hosts the oldest operational lighthouse in the country, often used as a landmark when giving directions in this area. Mouille Point was developed in the 1940s but does not feel dated or stuck in any one era. The beachfront is continuously changing to move with the times and has recently been redeveloped for the 2010 soccer world cup.

Just minutes away and a comfortable walk from the V&A Waterfront, Mouille Point is perfect for business or leisure stays. The nearby Green Point stadium makes this one of the most fashionable and sought after addresses in modern Cape Town as it offers excellent accommodation to soccer fans and suffering partners alike!

As a result of space being limited due to the Green Point common and the ocean, the accommodation in this area consists mainly of high-rise apartment blocks. Although these tend to channel the ocean winds, the views are breathtaking when seen from this vantage point. The closer your block is to the waterfront, the better your view of the private marina.

Mouille Point also boasts numerous fine restaurants situated along the beachfront. Outside seating areas along the pavement and those on balconies allow you to enjoy your drink or meal with the sun shining on your face and the breeze blowing through your hair. Sip on a delicious cocktail as you watch the sun set and get ready for an evening of scintillating entertainment.

Next time you are in Cape Town why not book an extended stay in one of Mouille Point's accommodation and explore all that the fairest Cape has to offer?
