A brief history of the area
Three Anchor Bay is a small anchorage in Table Bay. Its name was first recorded in Dutch records of 1661, and probably refers to a defensive chain that stretched across the Bay and was probably secured in place by three anchors.

Special attractions
The little Three Anchor Bay beach is popular, particularly with sea kayakers who paddle out from Three Anchor Bay along the coast to Clifton.
Follow the curve of the road at the coast with Lion's Head clearly visible in the distance, and one meets up with Sea Point's busy promenade, and yet another well-known landmark in Cape Town, the Green Point lighthouse, lies behind one.
The promenade is never uneventful, whatever the time of day, and it regularly teems with people walking, jogging, rollerblading, skateboarding or simply drinking in the views from benches along the edge of the lawns on the seaside walkway.
There is also quick access to the city centre, the V&A Waterfront, Green Point's stadium and the Atlantic beaches of Camps Bay and Clifton.
