My all time favourite book shop in the world! Well priced 2nd hand and almost new books on every possible topic imaginable! If you are on the way from.Cape Town to Hermanus and taking the scenic route then stop in towards the end of Gordon's Bay and save at least an hour to browse through this treasure trove of a book shop! I could spend days in there! Oh and it's cash only. Enjoy

This book store is definitely worth a visit. But you need a full day because it is like a treaure hunt and they have so many chests to open 🤣. Staff is very friendly and treats guests respectful. So many many books but still neat and clean. It smells of knowledge when you walk in there... so many teachings between covers!

My favourite 2ndhand bookstore in the whole world. Great selection and variety that is well organized. Fiction & non-fiction. Interesting misc items for sale. Very good prices. The atmosphere is serene and memorable. The shopkeeper knows exactly what is available and where it is. Ideal location and after picking a mountain of great books you can have an ice cream next door on the beach. Perfect for family outings, booklovers and dates.

A gem of a second hand book shop. Feels like something straight out of the USA. Worth the drive. So much variety and the books are reasonably priced.

A Beautiful Place Full Of Power And Knowledge With The Largest Collection Of Books I Have Ever Seen. Please Ensure You Bring Cash ! 100% Recommended To All Wanting To Find Themselves In A Calm And Motivating Environment.

Always exhilarating as you're always surprised by the hidden literacy gems to be discovered ! Many and varied! And the view from the shop stoep is second to none. All in all an awesome experience!

What do you say when you see a car on a roof and the front of the building looks very interesting and then you realise its a bookstore - and when you walk in your mind gets boggled by the sheer amount of books spread over several rooms. Well marked with friendly assistance, you are directed to any specific type of books you may be looking for. Having to go to Gordon's Bay on business, I had this bookstore in mind as a friend got some books for me so I had to visit and I was not disappointed as I got several for around R200 - a real bargain. Directly opposite the beach with a coffee shop next door - it is a must visit.

Awesome bookshop. It looks small and quaint from outside, but is much bigger on the inside (like the tardis). It would take days to properly go through all the books. Any bookworm's dream and a paradise for second hand book lovers. Will definitely be returning. And there is a cute ginger kitty that enjoys attention.

One of my favorite places in the whole world. Grab a cup of good take away coffee next door, say hello to the adorable ginger tomcat that resides there and spend hours trying to decide which treasure to take home. I've already have a whole collection of books purchased from them. A must do on a lazy weekend afternoon

Absolutely awesome. You can easily loose track of time

A must for booklovers, huge selection. One of the rare second hand bookstores where novels are alphabetically sorted! A pleasure to visit, wish I had set aside a few hours to spend there.

This bookstore has a lovely collection of a variety of genres. Other than some well known fantasy authors, I did not immediately recognise any of the modern authors that were there. However, the bookstores has quite a large collection of classics and non-fiction. The only problem is that there are many books, and it was rather time-consuming to sort through them all for ones I was actually interested in. Overall, I would rate this 4.5 stars.

What an amazing book shop. Rooms filled with books piled on tables and stacked on the floor. A must for any book lover. Also, super well-priced.

For people like me, the nostalgic book freak who is happy to leisurely stroll through the rooms with all the books. . . . . heaven. I never go home empty handed! :-)

What a wonderful shop and place to visit. I can literally spend hours here, walk out with a bunch and books and magazines and hardly have spent much money. You can even return your books and get a bit of credit back to get more books. Perfect way to destress walking through this shop and browsing all the literature.

Such a large variety of books and it is much bigger than the outside of the building paints it out to be. I spent more than an hour looking around at all the lovely books and all at a very good price. I suggest you wait buying a new book and go to Bikini Beach to see if they have it there, because they probably already do.

I love Bikini Beach Books... It's a bookshop shop for browsing, where any book can peak your interest... If you want to go outside for a quiet afternoon, this is a great place to go.

If you love browsing through thousands of books, then this is the place to visit. Books are well priced. Staff is not very friendly or helpful. Cash only. LOVE the cat!

A stand alone house completely filled with a variety of second hand books. You will need time to navigate through the whole place. The bookstore is divided into categories e.g. Romance or Sport or Autobiography etc. Prices are good.

Very wide variety of books and located right next to the beach and coffee shops, perfect for casual browsing or if you are looking for something specific from fiction to educational. Can spend hours just browsing to find that perfect gift.

What a variety of books and good value for money. Books are very affordable and you will more than likely find something interesting, inspiring or just a good noval to tuck into. Definitely a 10 star from me.
