Parks & Nature
You can't skip visiting Table Mountain! I recommend taking the aerial tramway up and down, if you're interested in hiking up you should find a group to go with, and never hike alone. (Always check the weather report before going, bring water, and warm clothes because the weather can change VERY quickly on even the hottest days.)

Lovely "pocket park" less than a block away from the apartment, a good spot to sit out and enjoy a bit of outside time. There is a playground available if you have friends with children visiting.
