Landmark Panorama of the V & A Waterfront
Situated in the heart of Cape Town's working harbour, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront has become South Africa's most visited destination, but somehow has avoided becoming a tourist trap. Set against a backdrop of magnificent sea and mountain views, exciting shopping and quayside entertainment venues are intermingled with imaginative office locations, world-class hotels– and normal harbour activities. Redeveloped around the harbour´s old wharves, in the early 1990s, the V&A Waterfront has all the sophistication of a major travel destination combined with the charm of a working harbour and with many locals bustling around doing their daily shopping on the way home from work or chilling out with friends.
