Bikini Beach is reputed to have received its name from the little bikinis worn by students from the nearby University of Stellenbosch!

It’s situated in the small coastal town of Gordon's Bay at the foot of the Hottentots Holland mountain range and is tucked up against the Gordon's Bay harbour wall. It is sheltered from the southerly winds which often blow in the summer months, and is considered a safe bathing area. It is a popular destination for residents and overseas visitors alike as the beach is sandy, the water warm and the locals welcoming.

There are restaurants and hotels within a short walk from the beach, with the nearest being located in the adjacent Gordon's Bay harbour area.

Lifeguards are on duty during the Blue Flag season (December to March). There is limited parking close to the beach but sufficient parking a short walk away.
