1. Everything is significantly cheaper

Cape Town is a very seasonal destination meaning less people visit the destination during the winter.

This makes the destination very affordable and within reach for someone who would not usually afford it in summer. Accommodation rates are as low as ZAR 900.00 at Cresta Grande Cape Hotel in winter. The hotel can also organize packaged deals for you which include accommodation, activities, and meals at a very affordable price.

2. It is less crowded

Due to the seasonality, there will generally be less people in Cape Town during the winter season making it less crowded at parks, sights, and activities. If you visit Cape Town, you will spend more time experiencing the city and less time in traffic and queues. Cresta Grande Cape Town Hotel which is within walking distance to all major tourist attractions, including the waterfront makes it even better.

 

3. Cape Town is lush and green in winter

Whales can be sighted while driving on the coast or up close from a specialized whale-watching boat tour. You can also attend the annual Hermanus Whale Festival which takes place at the end of winter where you will not only watch whales but also enjoy live performances and stores selling unique goods and artefacts.
