"A bustling waterfront destination set in the Southern Hemisphere’s oldest working harbor, notable for its scenic promenades and public art (including statues lining some streets). It serves as a lively hub for shopping, dining, and nightlife with views of Table Mountain and convenient access to other city attractions." - Sophie Mendel Sophie Mendel Sophie Mendel is an editor at Travel + Leisure, where she assigns, edits, and publishes the product reviews and recommendations that help guide travelers toward the best shoes, apparel, accessories, and hotels for their needs.
