Chapman’s Peak Drive – One of the most Scenic Coastal Rides

One of the most spectacular coastal drives on the planet, cut into the cliffs between Hout Bay and Noordhoek. Nine kilometres, 114 curves, and a sheer drop to the Atlantic below make for a slow, deliberate drive best taken with the windows down. Time it for late afternoon, when the light catches the water and turns the whole route gold.
