Cape town accommodation
 SUMMER:
September – April
Cape Town has low summer rainfall and temperatures reaching
28-30ºC or higher on beautiful days. The hottest days are often cooled by the
"Cape Doctor", the famous South-Easter breeze which keeps the city free of
pollution.
WINTER: May – August
The winters are cool and can be wet, but the temperature hardly
ever falls below 10° C.
CLIMATE
The water temperatures in the Atlantic are low, due to the above-mentioned
Benguela current, but east of the city the influence of the Indian Ocean is
noticeable, and the beaches and seaside places on that side of the Cape
Peninsula are more populated. The beaches in the west do have the advantage of
protection from the South-Easter by the Table Mountain massif.
