The Simon’s Town Marina is tucked in behind the naval harbour wall, well protected from the strong Cape South Easter wind in summer and sheltered from the North Wester in winter. The marina consists of 260 walk on moorings and a number of swing moorings for members of False Bay Yacht Club and visitors, both local and international. The marina and club face into the north, picking up all the sunlight for the benefit of all making use of the lawns  and Pier 23 Restaurant.
