Bakoven Beach just past Camp's Bay South Africa

Submitted January 27, 2018 by Terra 

I am currently living in Cape Town and find loads of great sea glass at Bakoven beach just past Camps Bay (about 6 ki southwest of Cape Town).

I have also found marbles and even a small China doll arm. It is a small beach but plentiful. Go at low tide.

Bakoven Beach just past Camp's Bay South Africa

is nestled just beyond Camps Bay in South Africa, is a picturesque stretch of coastline renowned for its tranquil ambiance and stunning natural beauty. Characterized by its secluded coves and rocky outcrops, this beach offers a more intimate setting compared to its bustling neighbor.


The golden sands of Bakoven Beach are framed by rugged cliffs, creating a dramatic backdrop against the azure waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Tall palm trees sway gently in the breeze, providing a touch of tropical allure to the landscape. Visitors can often spot surfers riding the waves or locals casting their lines from the shoreline, adding to the laid-back atmosphere of the area.

One of the defining features of Bakoven Beach is its iconic beachfront bungalows, which line the coast and offer breathtaking views of the ocean. These charming residences blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings, enhancing the area's charm and appeal.

Whether you're seeking a peaceful spot to soak up the sun, indulge in water sports, or simply admire the coastal scenery, Bakoven Beach offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Its pristine beauty and relaxed atmosphere make it a must-visit destination for travelers exploring the Cape Town area.

Hello Teresa,

I became an avid collector of sea glass while serving as an assistant principal on the eastern shore. It actually funds a mentoring program I found.

I will be traveling with a group of students in a few weeks to Durban girls school and would appreciate any insight as I would love to find a few pieces. I’m open to anything.

Thank you so much

I do have a Facebook page Sea Glass Creations by "C" & Other Shore Things
