Location | Waterfront

The Waterfront is situated in the Cape Town Harbour. It is ideally located, being on the periphery of the city bowl, so residents benefit from their proximity to the central business district and the Cape Town International Convention Centre, as they don’t have far to travel into town and therefore miss a lot of the peak hour traffic. As well as being surrounded by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the Waterfront is neighboured by Green Point, a trendy, vibey area that offers many nightlife options and forms part of the CBD and De Waterkant. The N1 and N2 highways, both main arteries of Cape Town, are accessible upon exiting the Waterfront and thus connect it easily to the rest of Cape Town, including the Northern and Southern Suburbs.
