Worth a couple of hours, you get some lovely views, the bird life is excellent. A nice place to get away from it all.

The entrance to this has changed since we last visited but still easy to find. Interesting paths with lovely fynbos and flowers as you walk up to the crest of the hill. Once there some very good views over the town and out to the lagoon. We were very lucky to spot the elusive Loerie in amongst the trees!

Peaceful and tranquil even though in the centre of town. Has great variety of fynbos. Ideal for birdwatchers. Saw famous pink loeries there.

Saw everything we needed and wanted to see. Lion enclosure was a little disappointing in that it wasn't really free roaming as such and only 2 but we did see them eating and took some amazing photos. If you haven't time to do a proper safari well worth going.
