Top 10 Couples and Engagement Shoot Locations in Cape Town
It’s no secret that Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities on earth. The city is set against the backdrop of the iconic Table Mountain and surrounded by white sandy beaches and breathtaking landscapes. One of the best ways to document your once in a lifetime trip is with a couples or engagement shoot in Cape Town.
Here are my top 10 Couples and Engagement Shoot Locations in Cape Town:
Table Mountain
The iconic Table Mountain takes the top spot as a couples shoot location in Cape Town. You can be adventurous and take one of many hiking options up the mountain to catch the views or simply take the cable car up. I highly recommend sunset as the best time to take in the world famous views.
2 & 3. Signal Hill and Lion’s Head
Another icon on the Cape Town landscape is Signal Hill and Lion’s Head. Only a few minutes up from the city and you have a 360 degrees views of the city, Table Mountain and the Atlantic ocean. Well trot hiking trails mean you can easily get to all the great views.
4. Maiden’s Cove
With a backdrop of the 12 Apostles and the Atlantic, Maiden’s Cover offers so many mini locations in one with jaw dropping views.
5. Blouberg Beach
White sandy beaches that stretch into amazing scenes across the bay to Table Mountain and Robben Island. Blouberg beach is generally a bit quieter than some of the other beaches in Cape Town which is ideal for couples photoshoots.
6. Chapmans Peak
One of the most beautiful coastal drives in South Africa makes for the perfect couples shoot location. Sunset is the best time to head there when the cliffs light up with that beautiful African golden hour.
7. Cape Town CBD
The Cape Town CBD is a highly underrated location. With it’s European aesthetic, you can show off that this beautiful city has to offer and take in some of the beautiful buildings.
8. Kloof Corner
On the drive up to the cable car is a little corner that offers a unique perspective on the city and Lion’s Head. It’s a 30min straight up hike, but the views are well with it!
9. Newlands Forest
Newlands forest is like something out a fairytale, backing up along the edge of Table Mountain with beautiful trees and greenery. Well walked trails mean you can easily get to a variety of beautiful locations.
10. Noordhoek Beach
A beach that stretches for over 10kms - Noordhoek beach offers a panoramic view of Chapman’s Peak Drive and and the beautiful white sandy beaches.
