Bordjiesrif Picnic Site and Tidal Pool

👍👍 Lovely tidal pool to swim and enjoy the scenery of powerful mountains and endless sea, with a picnic area and rocks nearby. On my journey to dip into each tidal pool, each one is as beautiful as the last one - they’re all incredible. Someone said one had an octopus in it once…curious… People often mention pool, tidal, area, Cape,

    The Cape point National park is a place that shouldn't be missed when visiting Cape town. Historical sites as well the abundance of a large variety of floral. Bordjiesrif is just one of the beaches to admire and enjoy. Picnic spots and braai areas on a long stretch alongside the water.

    Beautiful place. There is so many braai spots that you can go to at Cape Point!! So many hiking trails. So much to see and explore. Just be careful of the baboons 😂

    Amazing tidal pool however the tidal pool wall should be cleant and the rocks removed its a real danger when some people dive. Come early before 7 to get a nice spot and parking close to the spot. Overall its amazing for a day out with the family

    Superb place to spend the day with family and friends. Safe, and the tidal pool was amazing. Even in a windy day in cape town, there was little to no wind. Had a braai and relaxing time. Enjoy the wild life whiles there. Entry fee payable.

    Lovely spot! Especially if you have kids who love to clamber across boulders and explore! A nice stopover point between the Cape lighthouse and Muizenberg.

    One of the nicer spots in the Cape Point Nature reserve. You get to see a lot of seagulls, experience high winds and a fairly stony beach. Get your picnic basket, sit down and enjoy the surroundings. Watch out for the scavenging seagulls.

    Fantastic place to braai with the family after a morning spent walking around Cape of Good Hope.

    Visited at the start of winter, drove in on a troop of baboons getting high off a spilled bottle of softdrink, was fascinating to watch and then see them foraging in the shallows on mussels and whatnots. The tide was out so the pool a bit low, but the area is beautiful and an awesome spot to just hang out at.

😐 This is a really lovely park but the prices depicted on the internet is incorrect. It's actually more than indicated. However, as they only take cash we had to struggle to find a bank to draw money. Not really the best experience... But the park itself is beautiful. Braai areas and trails to go hike...
