Cape Town Quick Facts - Cape Town Adventures
"Cape Town is one of the few cities where you can cage-dive with sharks in the morning and drink wine in the afternoon.”
 | Tour Cape Town, South Africa, like a local and discover a city that moves to its own rhythm. Beyond the postcard views and iconic landmarks, Cape Town reveals itself through neighbourhood cafés, coastal train rides, vibrant markets, and spontaneous sunset stops. When you explore the city the way locals do, you trade rigid itineraries for authentic moments and unforgettable connections. |
Get ready for another week of exploring Cape Town! Our amazing partners at Africaworks are proud sponsors of this week’s newsletter.
When is the best time to visit Cape Town? The answer depends on the trip you’re dreaming of. Sun-soaked beaches. Wildflower-lined hiking trails. Wine harvest celebrations. Or cosy winter escapes at better value. Because while Cape Town is a year-round destination, its seasons shape the experience. Understanding Cape Town seasons can transform a good trip into an unforgettable one. |  |
 | Seaforth Beach, Cape Town invites you to discover one of False Bay’s most peaceful coastal treasures, tucked away in charming Simon’s Town. While many visitors head straight for the famous penguins nearby, this sheltered stretch of sand offers calm waters, soft white sand, and a laid-back seaside atmosphere that feels refreshingly unhurried. If you are searching for a quiet beach day with incredible views and easy access from the city, Seaforth Beach delivers. |
Here’s an un-boring way to invest that billionaires have quietly leveraged for decades
If you have enough money that you think about buckets for your capital…
Ever invest in something you know will have low returns—just for the sake of diversifying?
CDs… Bonds… REITs… :(
Sure, these “boring” investments have some merits. But you probably overlooked one historically exclusive asset class:
It’s been famously leveraged by billionaires like Bezos and Gates, but just never been widely accessible until now.
It outpaced the S&P 500 (!) overall WITH low correlation to stocks, 1995 to 2025.*
It’s not private equity or real estate. Surprisingly, it’s postwar and contemporary art.
And since 2019, over 70,000 people have started investing in SHARES of artworks featuring legends like Banksy, Basquiat, and Picasso through a platform called Masterworks.
23 exits to date
$1,245,000,000+ invested
Annualized net returns like 17.6%, 17.8%, and 21.5%
My subscribers can SKIP their waitlist and invest in blue-chip art.
Investing involves risk. Past performance not indicative of future returns. Reg A disclosures at masterworks.com/cd
If you’re searching for what’s on in Cape Town in March 2026, prepare for a month bursting with music festivals, sporting showdowns, art under the stars, theatre premieres, and unforgettable outdoor adventures. March signals the start of autumn in the Mother City, bringing golden evenings, warm days, and a packed events calendar that invites you to step out and experience the city in full swing. |  |
