MELKBOS ACTIVITIES
Melkbosstrand is the perfect base from which to explore both Cape Town and the West Coast, such as the close by Durbanville winelands and the Boland Mountains, offering a number of wonderful day trips through valleys hung with vines, blue skies for most of the year and mountains looming in the background. The villages of Darling (think 'darling' town tucked in amongst vines and home to Evita se Perron; theatre you mustn't miss!), and even Riebeek-Kasteel and Riebeek-West if you're prepared to travel a little further, are all within easy range of Melkbosstrand and well worth the effort.
Watersports - surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, bodyboarding, boating.
CAPE WINELANDS, WESTERN COAST

Rolling vineyards and quaint Cape Dutch homesteads await you, as well as award-winning wine farms offering some of the country's best wines.
The rich, fertile soils along the Breede River Valley and especially the areas of Somerset West, Paarl, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, have become world famous for their whites, reds, sherries, ports and brandies. Numerous wine estates are within a 45-minute drive of Melkbosstrand and offer cellar tours and plenty of wine tasting opportunities. With towering mountains as their backdrop, the winelands towns offer history, spectacular scenery, outdoor activities and award winning restaurants for elegant or casual dining.
The winelands are divided into various different regions, each offering their own 'wine route'. The most popular and well-known are Stellenbosch, Franschhoek, Somerset West, Wellington and Paarl. The wine estates of the Constantia valley are among the oldest estates and homesteads and produce award-winning wines.
