Arachne Consulting
"Away from Camps Bay are the boulder-strewn coves at Bakoven - the best of which is Beta. With little to no wave action, this beach is perfect for a quick dip in the cold Atlantic or if you’re braver, snorkeling. However, if warmer activities is more for you, the granite rocks are great for sun-bathing, family fun and picnics. The sunsets are a must with Lion’s head also offering up scenic photoshoot opportunities.
