Waters Edge

This is the point where Simon’s Bay meets the south coast of the Cape Peninsula, and the coastline makes a distinct turn, becoming more exposed to the swell and winds from the southeast. This site is in a Marine Protected Area (2004). A permit is required. The site is entirely inside the Boulders Restricted Zone.

Flat gently shelving sand bottom with occasional low rock outcrops. There is a line of high reef quite close inshore, and large shoreline boulders and gullies.
