Mouille Point is a safe, sought after area, close to many recreational activities and amenities. The oldest working Lighthouse in the country, the iconic Green Point Lighthouse, is a stand out feature on the Promenade, which is perfect for walks, jogging, biking and skateboarding. The Green Point Urban Park is a short walk away, with beautiful gardens, walkways and a huge outdoor kids playground. Next door to that is the Virgin Active Gym. There are a host of great restaurants and coffee shops close by, while a beauty salon and bicycle store are right around the corner. The Cape Town Stadium which hosts many international music and sporting events is 800m away and directly behind us you'll find the Metropolitan Golf Course. Kayak rentals are available 1km away and you can paddle past the Dolphin Inn looking for whales, dolphins and seals. The very popular V+A Waterfront which offers world class shopping, dining and entertainment, is 2km away. Mouille Point offers something for everyone within a short walk!
