Join in the lunar festivities tonight with one of these activities.
#moonlightmass
Join our outdoor blogger, Mark Samuel, as he takes to the streets of Green Point with hundreds of other cyclists for this monthly, moonlit bike ride.
Lion’s Head hike
Capetonians are crazy about hiking to the top of this peak for panoramic views of the city. Head up in the late afternoon to watch the sun setting over the ocean before the moon rises over the City Bowl.
Clifton Beach picnic
One of the Cape’s most iconic and beautiful beaches, Clifton is a popular spot for a picnic when the moon is full. Grab a blanket, a few lanterns and a delicious finger dinner, and enjoy the sight of the moon on the ocean.
Get snap happy
Shutterbugs and Insta-spammers, now is your chance to shine – or at least filter your ass off. Long-exposure pics of city landmarks in the moonlight are where it’s at tonight. Social media is waiting for your award-worthy pics. Don’t forget to tag @Capetownetc!
Toast the spring
A moonlit city at the beginning of spring is cause for celebration. We say throw caution to the wind this Tuesday and toast to warmer days and hotter nights.

W hat is a third super moon?
It’s the third time that the full moon is coinciding with the moon being at its closest orbital point to the Earth. Basically? It’s very big and pretty 😉
