Following land occupation around Cape Town the EFF have come out and made some interesting claims. Is it time for new neighbours, Camps Bay and Bishopscourt?
Come rain or shine, the beach and ocean always does wonders for the soul – so why not spend the afternoon staring at it?
Poor service is all but normal in Cape Town. But add to that unhygienic levels of dirt and grime, meat that tastes expired, and a dismissive attitude from the manager, and something needs to be said.

With Summer around the corner, it’s only a matter of time before we hear about the rates charged for fancy Cape Town homes. This particular property charges R100,000 a day. And that’s not just for Summer – that’s throughout the year!
Good. Another reason for us to not take up surfing. As if the threat of sharks isn’t enough, we can now worry about fish that are big enough to eat said sharks.
The Durban-July is arguably one of the country’s biggest parties, but there’s a way to get in on the action without breaking the budget and travelling to Durbs.
The R300 million Camps Bay mansion, ‘Enigma,’ needs no introduction. What does require an introduction, however, is this video they’ve made, capturing every aerial angle imaginable!
Lyndall Jarvis talks about her experience shooting in the palatial Enigma Mansion in Cape Town – South Africa’s most expensive and glamorous residence.
This place has literally rescued us from the painstaking task of having to plan which tired, hipster hang-out we’ll waste our hard-earned cash on during our monthly Friday night, pink-slip of freedom.

You might not have heard of Balie Bay. It’s a tiny curve in the coast of Camps Bay, and it happens to be bordered by a handful of stunning properties. And you can count this badboy as part of the club. Billed as “sheer 5-star luxury”, this R29 million, four-bedroomed property is basically an elaborate diving board for the ocean – which is what you’ll be calling your pool from now on.
I was liaising with someone at MyCiti the other day, asking when Camps Bay will be connected to the system, given all the new bus stops. This year, she says.. this year. She sent this radical new routes map..

A few weeks ago we received a tip from a reader about a certain guest house in Camps Bay – Whale Cottage – operated by one Chris Von Ulmenstein. We published a story, following an investigation and Ulmenstein refused to comment. Today we received this lawyer’s letter.
