Event information
Glencairn tidal pool, on the False Bay side near Simon’s Town, is a spacious pool that feels open and connected to the sea while still offering protection from the waves. It’s popular with both locals and visitors for its size, making it suitable for longer swims as well as casual dips. The sandy beach alongside the pool adds to its appeal for families, while the surrounding mountains create a striking backdrop. Easily accessible from the main road and train line, it’s also close to Glencairn’s cafés and restaurants.
