Hotels in Western Cape, South Africa

The Western Cape is a province in southwestern South Africa with a Mediterranean climate-summers (Dec-Feb) are dry and warm, averaging 77°F (25°C), while winters (Jun-Aug) are mild at 59°F (15°C) with rain. It's famous for Table Mountain, the Cape of Good Hope, and the Stellenbosch wine region. In summer, you can hike Table Mountain or surf at Muizenberg Beach, while winter brings whale watching in Hermanus and fewer crowds at the V&A Waterfront. If you visit from June to September, you'll spot southern right whales in Walker Bay, and the green winter season means lower prices on wine farm tours.
