Sandy Bay, Cape Towns nude tanning beach, is well removed and private but can be approached from one of two directions. From the side of Llandudno Beach Sandy Bay is forerun by a number of nooks and crannies where small parties can tan in private alcoves amongst the rocks, while the approach to the main white sand beach from the Hout Bay side is over a series of sand dunes.
Beaches on the west coast of the Cape Peninsula tend to be colder than their counterparts on the east coast, but they are typically more sheltered from the Cape's gusty southeaster wind.
