Need to find a place to blend romance with the exotic? Then Cape Town, South Africa is a great place to visit. It is a top destination for romantic gay vacations and has been for a long time. It is a beautiful place for that perfect get away for just the two of you. You will find all types of activities to catch your interest.
Bordered on the South by the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and on the North by the towering 4,000 foot Table Mountain, Cape Town's horizons are anything but ordinary and in constant flux with the clouds rolling off the mountain's peaks defining the sky-scape randomly and dramatically. The perfect backdrop for an afternoon of lazing quietly on the beach, wrapped in a partner's never ending gaze.
If you're looking for the perfect romantic place to stay, book your nights at the incredible Glen Boutique Hotel. Given that this hotel is gay owned and operated, it's an exceptional choice for gay travel and you certainly won't be disappointed by the luxurious bedrooms and marble baths. As Cape Town's gay village booms, so do your options for renowned exotic culinary masterpieces -- such as Ulwimi (steamed Ox tongue in mustard sauce) at Marco's African Place -- or you might head on over to the jazzy Off Moroka Cafe Africaine to indulge in some traditional African fare.
Looking for things to do won't be hard, either. From romantic tours in South Africa's wine country, try Lyngrove Country House; to historical museums that will leave you emotional and speechless, three to see: Bo-Kapp Museum, District Six Museum and National Gallery; to an amazing nightlife, your vacation to Cape Town is sure to give you the most incredible memories.
The Rhodes Memorial is built on the slopes of Devil's Peak. This memorial is in honor of Cecil Rhodes, a gay entrepreneur from Great Britain and founder of the Rhodes Scholarship and the DeBeers company. After you have done all this, it will be time to head back to the beaches again to rest up a bit so you're ready for the clubs again.
Just make sure to bring a wet suit if you plan on swimming, because the Atlantic Ocean is cold here. All in all, random wildlife including ostriches, penguins, baboon and monkeys (well, you wanted exotic) notwithstanding, booking gay adventure travel to Cape Town is definitely well worth it.
