Bakoven’s beach is often overlooked in favor of the more trendy Camps Bay just minutes away, but make no mistake, Bakoven is one of the most sought-after suburbs in Cape Town and the views from here are simply spectacular.

​

Bakoven, a tiny suburb bordering a small, secluded beach, this beach is one of Camps Bay’s best-kept secrets.  Its name came about from the Dutch settlers, literally meaning “baking oven”, and refers to a large rock off the beach that looks like an open oven, similar to those used by the early Dutch settlers. Bakoven has been called Camps Bay’s baby sister, but its exclusivity and charming village-like feel that the neighbourhood has managed to maintain has been deliberately kept this way to avoid the constant hustle and bustle of its popular counterpart.
