Shelley Point Country Club & Golf Course

Reviewed By mrsmeisty

Great little 9 hole course with two sets of tees. Excellent for a social and fun round. Everything was in good condition and the pro shop staff were friendly and helpful. There's a nice little chipping and putting practice area, too.

Paternoster Beach

Reviewed By Peter E - Devizes

We stayed in Paternoster mid-week, off-peak. The long stretch of sand with sporadic rock pools was a pleasure to enjoy, with few people. The old town is a picturesque backdrop. The local fishing fleet launch from the sand adding interest. (It is probable that at weekends and in peak season the town and beach will be very busy)

Stompneus Point Lighthouse

Reviewed By stefkruger - Cape Town Central, South Africa

Great place to walk to when visiting. The bay is pretty much flat up until this point when you have a great perspective of where you are.
The water and surrounds are crystal clear due to the rock pulls with loads of shell life nestled in between.
Cool, not amazing but worth the walk of in the area.

Vasco Da Gama Statue

Reviewed By Nico C - Johannesburg, South Africa

We have so much history in our country and this particular monument should be of particular importance, but sadly it seems to be a bit neglected. There are broken glass bottles all over the surrounding ground. At least it seems to be fairly free of graffiti, but I can only assume that it must be a constant effort as the monument is very accessible at all times. Time to spend here - about 10 minutes.

Jem & Pantoffels

As with most things in Paternoster this store certainly is unique. A wonderful eclectic mix of items - gifts, clothes, super preserves and a lovely selection of Cape honeys. Well worth a browse and quite likely you'll find something that takes your fancy.
