Cape Town's 7 things to do this weekend
Ocean fest, drag night, kids reptile show & a lot more
Latest update: Tuesday, 8 July 2025
Besties, winter’s got nothing on this week’s lineup. There’s an ocean festival in Plett, a classic Jack and the Beanstalk show, French fest with wine tastings, orchestra ensemble with Mandisi Dyantyis, reptile show for kids, and a drag night at the V&A. Plus, 20+ more things to do anytime.
Winter is the best time of year to visit Plettenberg Bay. It’s sunny with clear skies and the whales arrive for their annual migration. And it’s the Plett Ocean Festival, which celebrates marine life with ocean safaris, whale watching, kayak tours, guided walks and beach clean ups. We’ve unpacked the Plett Ocean Festival (including where to eat & stay).
