False Bay suburbs

The False Bay coast runs from Muizenberg through to Simon's Town along the eastern shore of the Cape Peninsula. This corridor is known for its surf culture, historic naval base, and the scenic railway line. Property values are more accessible than the Atlantic Seaboard, and the area attracts both families and retirees.
