Discover the culinary delights of Harbour House in Camps Bay
Image: Supplied
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, Harbour House in Camps Bay is a restaurant that thrives on location — but thankfully, it offers much more than just a spectacular view.
I recently attended the opening, and we were greeted by the warm hum of chatter and clinking glasses with the setting sun as a backdrop.
Upon entering, one of the first things you notice is the attention to detail; the ceiling of the restaurant looks like the inside of a ship's hull, while the screens on the sides of the restaurant look like open water.
From the moment you step in, the vibe strikes you: it's intimate, stylish, and perfect for the kind of night where you want to treat yourself and maybe escape for a few hours. The open-plan layout allows the salty breeze and ocean soundtrack to filter in — a signature Camps Bay experience.

For the opening, it was not a sit-down affair, but we were treated to various drinks, including a champagne tower and wine for the connoisseurs, and plenty of options for those who do not drink alcohol. My friend and I enjoyed their non-alcoholic cocktail throughout the night and did not feel left out.
From the moment you step into the restaurant, the atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, with friendly and helpful staff. From the hostesses to the waitresses and waiters. Throughout the night, I cannot remember a time when our glasses were not full.
Now onto the food.
There was an incredible and fresh oyster station where guests could go throughout the night to get oysters how you prefer it. There was a friendly waitress responsible for keeping the station clean and ensuring that the flow was seamless.
Enjoy breathtaking views and an unforgettable dining experience at Harbour House in Camps Bay, where exquisite seafood meets warm hospitality.

'I had the most beautiful day in Lusaka 🇿🇲♥️ Travelling our continent, connecting and networking with my people is such a blessing,' she wrote, capturing the essence of her trip.

Next Stay Close ✕ Lipa looked stunning in a polka dot bikini that perfectly complemented the sun-kissed setting, making waves - not just in the water, but across her legion of fans watching the couple from afar. The Amalfi Coast, a breathtaking stretch of coastline renowned for its dramatic cliffs and lush Mediterranean landscapes, offers an enviable backdrop for Lipa and Turner's getaway. This UNESCO World Heritage site is celebrated for its picturesque towns and culinary delights, attracting countless travellers each year, but none may be as captivating as this newly engaged duo. Amidst the scenic beauty, Lipa recently took to Instagram to celebrate her remarkable achievement of selling out five stadium shows in a row across various cities, including Liverpool, Dublin, London and Antwerp. "5 SOLD OUT STADIUMS IN A ROW!!!! ~ ONLY ONE WAY TO CELEBRATE!!!! BY SPLITTING THE G!!!!!!," she exclaimed in a joyful post, marking the milestone with her friends and fiancé at a local pub. The candid photographs painted a picture of jubilation, capturing moments of laughter, dancing, and shared beers - celebrating success in the vibrant spirit that defines Lipa. Following her performance in Liverpool, the singer expressed heartfelt gratitude, stating, "And through the downpour of an English summer, Liverpool, you were with me every step of the way! I love you, I love you, I love you!!!!' Her connection with her fans has been a driving force behind her success, as each show amplifies her devotion to the audience that has supported her journey. Lipa's engagement to Callum Turner was confirmed during a recent British Vogue interview, solidifying a relationship that has been the subject of speculation since December 2024, when the singer was first seen flaunting a stunning diamond ring. This summer getaway serves as not only a hideaway to celebrate her burgeoning career but also a romantic escape to enjoy their love amidst the buzz of her thriving tour.
