There are few drives in the world that rival Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard on a clear, sunny day. I picked up my rented convertible from Majestique early in the morning — the soft hum of the engine already promising a good day ahead. The plan was simple: hug the coast from the V&A Waterfront all the way to Chapman’s Peak Drive, and stop wherever the road or the mood decided.
As I rolled out through Sea Point, the early joggers were already out, and the salty breeze came straight off the Atlantic. With the top down, the city felt alive — palm trees whipping past, the ocean stretching endlessly to the right. By the time I reached Clifton and Camps Bay, the sunlight was bouncing off the water in every direction. I pulled over for a quick espresso and watched surfers tackle the morning waves.
The real highlight came on Chapman’s Peak Drive — that iconic, winding coastal stretch carved into the mountain. Each bend opened to another postcard view, and with the top down, it felt like driving through a living dream. The car’s power and comfort made every turn smooth and exhilarating at once.
