Recently penguin mania has hit Hollywood with popular movies - Madagascar, March of the Penguins & Happy Feet. As a result penguins are a star attraction & one of the highlights of any visit to Simon´s Town. But Simon´s town has loads more to offer than our quirky feathered friends at Boulders Beach. There are 4 museums in town, an historical mile with a multitude of historical tales & buildings to match the distance. Boat trips head off in all directions & one of our favourite activities is sea kayaking. Don´t miss Scratch Patch & Mineral World - the largest gem stone factory in the southern hemisphere, where you can scratch for your own bag of semi precious stones.
