On the magnificent coastal drive from Cape Town to Cape Point is Hout Bay and Mariner's Wharf, the first
harbourfront emporium in Africa and the Southern Hemisphere.
Conceptualised and built by Hout Bay's own Stanley Dorman, it continues to grow under his, wife Pam's, and sons Garth and Anton's watchful eyes. Its restaurants, shops and markets exude a maritime ambience as is nowhere else to be found. Mariner's Wharf is a wonderful place, a place where the famous and locals, jetsetters and tourists rub shoulders with venerable fishing captains and old salts.
Indeed, well worth a visit!
