A beautiful cruise, a stunning sunset and a great glass of bubbly, what better way to celebrate Valentine's Day than with a perfect sundowner.
There’s two options on offer on the beautiful Tigger Too.
Option 1 is a one-and-a-half hour romantic sunset cruise with a lovely spritz cocktail on boarding , a glass of bubbly at sunset and a cute rose to commemorate the occasion.
Option 2 is a two-and-a-half-hour sunset cruise with a delicious thirteen-piece canape dinner back at the mooring when the boat returns.
Either option is a great way to spend the evening with your loved one, and an awesome opportunity to connect with the ocean and the beautiful African skies.

This is one of those community garden success stories that turned into so much more. This market is held every Saturday in Granger Bay near the V&A Waterfront.
It’s a community-driven, farmers-style market for independent local farmers as well as artisanal food producers. You can easily do your weekly food shopping (veg, fruit, bread, organic dairy, free-range eggs, honey, muesli and much more) here.
There’s food to be had, both raw and cooked :-) Aside from these, customers can buy edible plants and seedlings, compost and gardening supplies and equipment and there are also plenty of activities for kids such as storytelling, planting, craft and yoga.

Shimmy Beach Club is a beautiful venue right on the shores’ edge and provides the perfect backdrop to a day of celebrating women and listening to a wide variety of speakers on topics ranging from health and fitness, the power of positivity, to personal style, finance and productivity.
A great day out that reaffirms the aspects of what makes up an empowered woman in this day and age.
They call Mitchells a place for friends where food meets sport, and that should set up your expectations correctly for this excellent spot. Big screen TV’s show your favourite games, the beer is brewed on the premises (and it’s superb) and they have a very decent menu to stop you from becoming too many parts liquid during the game.
Enjoy the spicy beef Trinchado - strips of tender sirloin and rump steak flash fried with garlic, doused with Trinchado sauce or a sumptuous chicken Roulade, tender chicken breast stuffed with spinach and feta, served with mashed potatoes. Have that with a Milk & Honey or an Old Wobbly and you should be set up perfectly for the game.
The Greek Fisherman is located in the V&A Waterfront, centrally situated and with beautiful views of the working harbour. They offer traditional Greek and mediterranean cuisine with a modern twist.
As is to be expected the Meze and Tapas is designed to be shared and enjoyed together. Try the Soudzoukakia Grecque, beautiful meat rizoles with pomodoro sauce and cumin.
For mains, we can highly recommend the Roast Lamb, slow oven-roasted on the bone and with tzatziki, really lemony and succulent.
For desert go for the chocolate hazelnut Baklava, indulgent, rich and more-ish.
The ever-cool burger joint at the V&A Waterfront, specializes in gourmet burgers and ribs and over one hundred handspun shakes. The owners travelled the burger capitols of the world (Chicago, New York and Las Vegas), conducted massive amounts of research and refining to arrive at what they call “The best burger in the world”. A mighty claim!
We went for The Wharton, a Gibsons classic on a brioche bun with all the trimmings including cheese and a creamy mushroom sauce on the side. The meat was seasoned to perfection and the cook on the patty was exactly what it should be. Mouthwatering stuff, don’t forget to order one of their signature onion blossoms, an absolute treat.
This is a couple’s thing so grab your partner (or friend) and head over to the Life Day Spa in the V&A Waterfront for some well-deserved (and warm) pampering.
