Fish Hoek beach
(only 7 minutes drive from The Rock @ 2 Oceans)

Fish Hoek is well known and popular for its beautiful long stretch of white sandy beach. Children can swim and play to their hearts’ content in the sheltered children’s playground while adults may enjoy fine seafood at one of the charming beach restaurants. One can take a relaxing stroll down Jager’s walk, which runs along the mountainside of Fish Hoek beach. Jager’s Walk, a pathway along the rocky coastline takes the visitor as far as Sunny Cove where visitors can view the dolphins and whales that visit these shores annually.

The magnificent beach, reached through a secure parking area, is great for swimming, snorkeling, hobie-cat sailing and paddle-skiing. Visitors are sometimes treated to the sight of the local fishermen ‘trekking’ for haarders and yellowtail fish off Fish Hoek beach.

From late August the Great Southern Right Whales visit our Oceans and entertain thousands of spectators each year as they come close to shore to calf their babies and can often be seen frolicking in the bay. The elevated roads and parking bays provide excellent viewing sites.

Thanks to The Fish Hoek Surf Lifesaving Club, Fish Hoek is one of the safest and most popular beaches in Cape Town. The Fish Hoek Surf Lifesaving Club provides an invaluable voluntary service to the local community on weekends and public holidays. Established in 1958 by 8 members of the 1st Fish Hoek Sea Rovers in a little green shack on the beach, the Fish Hoek Surf Lifesaving Club has grown from humble beginnings into one of the strongest lifesaving clubs in the country and a vital member of the local community.

The club not only performs a vital community service, but also provides athletes with the opportunity of competing in Lifesaving as a physically demanding sports, comprising elements of swimming, running, canoeing etc. Local and international competitions allow the lifesavers to compete against other lifesavers and provides an incentive to better themselves and their rescue techniques. By striving to improve on their competitive performance, the lifesavers ensure that they are better able to serve the public. In this aspect the Fish Hoek Lifesaving Club has excelled, dominating the local competitions and finishing 2nd at the National Championships in the last couple of years. A number of our members have also gone on to receive National Colours.
