- Forbes have just ranked Kalk Bay for being the coolest neighborhood in the WORLD! Congratulations Kalk Bay.
What's in Kalk Bay? One of Cape Town's favorite Neighborhoods
Travelvids.tv ask Coleen van Staden to join in exploring the Kalk Bay shopping opportunities.
They walk up the main road from the bottom of Kalk Bay near the reef where the surfers hang out and venture all the way up along the shops to the harbour. Then head back along the other side... trinkets, fish, people, art, sweets and lots more...

when i visited this place, it was emotional for me because i learned that filipino refugees from the spanish regime settled here permanently. I flew to a very distant and totally unknown country for the first time and ending up to this wonderful neighborhood where to my surprise has filipino roots. I need to visit again.
Once again you take me back to my childhood, swimming at Kalkbay beach, being on the jetty, buying fresh fish, watch the fisherman gut and clean the fish, watch the seals bopping and swimming in the waves, thank you for these beautiful memories. Loved it as always.
Would be nice if there were some more parking in Kalk Bay. At least the work on main road is done. It started when I finished primary school and they finished when I was done with university! Lol
Hahaha I know that feeling. Regarding the parking, i hear what you saying, but it also restricts an overflow. As it is the place gets to busy, imagine havining EVEN more people there. Now people have to park at St James and Muizies to walk there... which is also a nice thing.
My birth place. Heaven on earth.
That's Colleen van Staden! She directed a show I was in! All you Need is Love 2008/9!!! Hello Colleen!
The only guy vloging cpt, thank you so much
there a couple of us - work and life just gets in the damn way man
I teach adult ballet in Kalk Bay Community Centre … how cool is that???
One of my favourite spots around Cape Town.
Memories before manners!!!
Gotta love the South African accents !
Which one Dean or Darren or everyone in the video?
Dean's is still a bit better than yours!
Hahaha...It's a global phenomenon! almost exotic hahaha
@@TheBarker91 so many accents. English, Afrikaans, Coloured, African. The rainbow nation all in one little fishing village. I really love Kalk Bay.
Fantastic I didn’t even know these places existed.🇿🇦
Awesome footage, very inspirational.
Thanks glad you liked it.
Enjoy the journey.
Another great one guys! Love to see all Capetown has to offer through your videos.
Thanks David we really appreciate the positive feedback
This is so great!! Wonderful video and well done Kalk Bay, c'mon summer!! Really well done - great tour 'guide' Coleen!
This place looks amazing. Definitely taking a trip here.
Thanks guys, another great video
Thx Liam, thanx for the love.
Wow great stuff Well deserved. Kalkies on the harbor rocks
Lovely! Didn't even know these existed while I was there!!!! Tx for the info and great video...
Yeah Kalkbay rocks the socks. You can get some serious cuisine there as well.
I love Kalk Bay, seafood, scenery, shopping and chilling at it's finest, seriously as displayed here the shopping is so cool, most of the shops maintain this awesome chic vibe that I love.
I so badly want to move here.
Great video , so nice to see all the little shops .I only get to go there for a day at a time so I miss a lot of the stuff You show !
We really hope so too. Quite a few restaurants are already on super thin Ice :-(
+michael jamison thanks Michael
I loved this video so much , im very familiar with kalk bay and have family there , made me feel very warm to watch
I used to live in Kalk Bay. My kids went to school here.
Also I am lucky enough to be living quite close to Kalk Bay. Best place for a good cuppa coffee!
Great video thanks..do the Holy Trinity fish fare, the restaurants on the beach side, live entertainment, live theatre.
Hi Ingrid so many restaurants in Kalk Bay we decided to do them another day.
Found this durin lockdown 2020 wondering how many of those businesses will survive?
Scary thought. Hope its many!
Love your videos guys, fantastically shot, brilliant cinematography and great content. However, I just wish that you would pick slightly less irritating music to go along with the visuals, or at least just dial the volume way down. Looking forward to your next exploration!
Thanks For the input Craig it was a little high at the end.
Seems to fluctuate a lot between different devices and platforms we are finding.

Travelvids ah, that must be annoying for you guys to deal with. For reference, so far I've almost exclusively watched your videos on an Android phone using the official TH-cam app.
Thanks, noted & agreed Craig.... gonna put some more time into sourcing music from libraries in future!!! shot for the feedback
Great
What did you use for editing? I like that FONT!!
Will find out for you...
Damn its on my old computer
Thank you for responding see what you can do blease
More on the History please
Hi David, we would love to do it from another angle too... noted on the history side!!!
Dalebrook tidal pool.
Hi ! am here
Can someone say Kalk Bay one more time please? Kalk bay is lovely, but this is more a "shop until you're numb" video and as mentioned in the end, the area has so much more to offer, so much more that makes it ACTUALLY interesting, than little tourist type shops.
lekker mooi plek
dis hoekom ons so baie daaikanttoe gaan om te kuier - lekker by die see
Just my 2c being a local of Kalk Bay (Fisherman Flats). It is not only the main road that is Kalk bay, its heritage stems from the Fisherman Flats (Yellow flats). Take a walk through the area to get a feel of the community www.kalk-bay.co.za
Brilliant video, but you didn't mention Kalkies, the best, and I mean the best fish and chips in the world, by far.
Brass Bell please
I bet Forbes hasn't experienced how uncool the traffic gets
dont go in the weekend bru
@@DarrenBarker121 its not just the weekend my friend
great video. thanks.
just one question: are there no black people in Kalk Bay? (it seems, with regard to the interviews)
There certainly are black people in Kalk Bay... but not many. It is a predominantly white neighbourhood. As a long lasting result of apartheid, there is a still a sort of "natural segregation" that happens in South Africa. It's just the way it is.... like in most parts of the world... it takes many generations to see things like this change.... if you look at our long street video you will see how a once White dominated city has become a great melting pot of all colours and cultures... other areas (more distant from the city) are less inclined to change as quickly
ok i see. yes, very unfortunately "it takes many generations to see things like this change....".
thanks for the info!
will soon travel to SA. would like to stay close to the beach, but not to far away from CT center. i assume you would suggest Kalk Bay? or maybe Muizenberg? Simon's Town seems also great, but to far from city center...
Cape Town is really so small you can stay anywhere.... but staying in the city is great... For Beach, Muizenberg/Kalk Bay etc is great because the water is warmer.... But Blaauwberg side and the Atlantic Seaboard (Camps Bay, Seapoint) is nice too... Safe travels!!!
Ok great, thank you for the travel advice!
@@fretufretu6849 don't worry, there are plenty of places that used to be clean and safe, which have been taken over, if that's what you want to see. Give it a few years and Kalk Bay could be the same.
My Home Town, nog KBJ... LOL
Lekker by die see
The most amount of break-ins in the damn country. Had my car broken into 3 times and my flat robbed. Very “cool” 🤦🏼♂️
Agree. Stay away!
Really. This is number one?
It was at the time of the title creation - still a favourite among Cape Townians according to last local tourism survey
Wow! How I dont see ANY of my ORIGINAL melanated members walkyn round their land.
I WONDER WHY?!?!🤔🤔🤔
South Africa is a country built under rule and divide so there is still more time and it will take time for blacks and other races to be seen around those towns and the Whites likes to be alone I don't know why
That's because there were no melanated original members in that tiny area. How small an area can one zoom down to escape bitter remarks like yours?
so no black people found to interview i guess? how is this the coolest neighbourhood? criteria anyone? well done Kalkbay in 2017...lol
I will say it again Cape Town may be among one of the best cities in the world. But not the best city in the world. The factors to make it the best are. On a scale of one to ten. With one being terrible and ten being excellent.
Friendly people:7-8
Crime rate: 3-4
Infrastructure : 5-6
Climate or good weather: 6-7
Things to do: 7-8
Governance : 5-6
I feel like Cape Tonians overrate their own city. They make it look like it's fun and games. But it's not the problems it faces are real. They are not fake news media. So as a city it's not the best in the world.
Well said
If you believe it is, it effectively is.
Oh yes it is. Fantastic place.
Gay areas ok Cape Town
