Best moving company in Gordon’s Bay

Nestled between the False Bay Coast and the Hottentots Holland Mountains, Gordons Bay is a beautiful coastal village. Located just a short drive from Somerset West and Strand, as well as less than half an hour from Cape Town International Airport, this charming village has all the hallmarks of the Mediterranean.

The N2 Freeway from Cape Town provides convenient access from the north, while the scenic Clarence Drive from Cape Town to Hermanus provides excellent opportunities for whale watching and dolphin spotting from the road.

The name “Gordon” was chosen to honour Robert Jacob Gordon, who served as Commandant of the Dutch troops stationed at the Cape between the years 1777 and 1795.

Any visitor to Gordon’s Bay is sure to notice the massive anchor made of whitewashed stones that bears the initials GB high on the mountain overlooking the bay. Students at the General Botha SA Nautical College, which was founded in 1948 and subsequently leased space at the Old Crash Boat Station, painted the rocks that make up the formation in 1949. Despite popular belief, G.B. stands not for Gordon’s Bay but for General Botha, the original name of the Naval Academy.

Gordon’s Bay is a small village with two harbours. The original harbour is still in use today, welcoming fishing boats and yachts. The Gordons Bay Yacht Club, the National Sea Rescue Institute, and the South African Navy are all based there. Many charter boats and yachts call the new Harbour in Harbour Island home.

Winter rains and mild water and air temperatures are par for the course in this typical coastal resort climate. The “Cape Doctor” or south easterly wind is a welcome relief from the summer heat. It’s warm and dry with a bit of wind in the summer. The days are mild and balmy in the spring and autumn. Winters are typically mild, but can get chilly at night.
