Shopping Malls: V & A waterfront
  • Tip Rating:
  • The african market is a great place to get your souvenirs as most of the stuff is good qaulity but it may be more expensive than informal stalls on the road The shopping Mall will have everything you would expect. There is late night shopping seven days a week, the most convenient hours in the Western Cape. In addition there are boat rides, cinemas and restaurants.

    The V&A Waterfront comprises several top shopping centres, restaurants, coffee-shops and taverns, several quality hotels, an aquarium, cinemas, an IMAX theatre, arts and crafts markets, office space and a luxury residential component. The entire development is situated in the heart of Cape Town’s harbour area, with the shipping and fishing activities associated with any harbour, still very much a part of the development.

    There is lots to buy here , it has everything from top designer shops including a flea market whereby you can buy anything thing there at very reduced prices.

    Shopping Malls: V&A Waterfront
  • Tip Rating:
  • Shop Until You Drop at the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Alfred Mall features 15 specialty shops and boutiques, a restaurant and coffee shops. Victoria Wharf Shopping Centre has over 100 shops and more than 70 restaurants/coffee shops. Clock Tower Centre is the newest addition to the V&A Waterfront with plenty of shops and restaurants.

    Everything you can dream of.

    Mostly much cheaper than in Europe!

    Shopping Malls: All under one roof at the Cape Town Waterfront
  • Tip Rating:
  • Cape Town's Victoria & Alfred Waterfront is a conglomeration of MANY shops of a high standard, formed around Cape Town harbour. You can buy anything you can think of here! My uncle has an export business here at the docks. He retired in 2005 and my clever (hehe) cousin has takenover. He and his wife are visiting us in London in July 2060 and we look forward to seeing them! Woohoo! Okay, off that little nit of a family tangent now haha Many people do not like the Waterfront. Yes, it is commercialised, yes it is pricey. But there is so much to see and do here, from the imax to craft markets, from sailing or helicopter rides, to buying books and viewing sharks at the excellent Aquarium, it is all here. Plenty of evening entertainment and great food too.

    Arts and crafts, everything non-arty and carafty too! There really is something for everyone here.

    Here's the catch. Even though there is everything you could possibly hope to buy here, it is expensive and priced for tourists. Locals are not able to buy at the majority of the shops. You can buy the same thing at a local mall for alot less. Here you pay a shopping premium.
