There’s an art to keeping secrets, but there’s also the thrill of sharing them sometimes. Cape Town has so many gorgeous secret spots – but don’t worry we’re not here as Mystery Inc. revealing absolutely everything.
In the art of laying the breadcrumb trail for locals and travellers alike who seek different places to indulge their adventure, we’ve thrown in some spots that locals consider underrated or hidden gems in Cape Town. As for some of our other secrets, we’ll give you a peak only in visual.
Underrated spots
1.Majik Forest, Durbanville
Grab your most mysterious friend and set out for a picnic at this lush and divine underrated local spot.

2.Fish Hoek Beach
When most people think of beaches in Cape Town, their minds race to Clifton, Camps Bay or Boulders. Fish Hoek Beach is another beach that might be a bit of a drive from the city, but well worth it if adventure is the name of your game.

A nature lovers haven. If you are the Lorax and you speak for the trees, this is one park you cannot miss out on exploring through.

4. Clay Cafe
Clay Cafe should undoubtedly be the creative lovers’ next adventure stop. Painting an object over a delicious meal and a beverage or two? Clay Cafe, situated in Hout Bay deserves way more recognition.

5. The Alpaca Room
In Paarl lies the ultimate, fluffy (sometimes spitting) hidden gem. If seeing an Alpaca on Instagram alone makes you feel all warm inside, imagine going on a stroll, or petting one? We can see the highways to Paarl bustling after this.

6. The Gin Bar
Perhaps one of the ultimate secrets in Cape Town, that needed to be mentioned, but perhaps not told. Situated behind a chocolate shop, The Gin Bar is your mystery lover’s fantasy. We won’t reveal where they are hidden, but if you follow the trail you might stumble across the location yourself. Remember that chocolate and honesty are always important.
