A drive around the peninsula takes in a world of superlatives derived from differing microclimates as one passes from one side of the multi-faceted mountain chain to another. Sunlight — filtered by mountain ranges or clouds, or reflected by a sea which varies from an azure blue to a stormy grey — gives Cape Town its unique quality of light; rich in colour and contrast. Because of this, the city is an international centre for fashion photography and television commercials, and the Cape Town Film Office facilitates more filming than any other city in the world.
Driving around the peninsula can stretch from half a day to a day or more. Leaders in the Annual Cycle Tour, which attracts 35, competitors, complete the km course in just over two hours!

The garden route for example is one of the most famous drives to take in South Africa. It takes you from Mossel Bay in the west to Storms River in the east. This particular road trip covers about kilometres of diverse vegetation and wildlife, and an abundance of beautiful lagoons, lakes, mountains, forests and beaches. Whale watching:. Some of the best whale watching in the world can be had along the Cape Whale Route - a kilometre-long stretch of coastline that extends from Strandfontein near Muizenberg to Plettenberg Bay in the southern Cape.
Hermanus, although considered to be the Whale Watching Capital of the world according to The Inside Guide , is not the only village along this route that is worth a visit.
