St. James

The views over False Bay are magnificent especially from Boyes Drive. Whales are often spotted (June to November) and Boyes Drive has some excellent viewing spots.

St James Beach is one of the smaller beaches along the False Bay coastline but this doesn't detract from its charming appeal. The colourful beach huts and the large tidal pool are a trademark of St James. The beach area is not that big but there are rock pools on either side of the tidal pool that allow you to spread out and explore. The rock pools are rich with fascinating sea creatures.
This beach is great for everyone but has particular appeal to kids with a sense of adventure. The tidal pool is calmer and warmer than the sea making for very pleasant bathing conditions.

If the waves in the bay are quite big they can break against the tidal pool wall so it is advisable to not venture too close to the wall when this happens.
