In South Africa we refer to downtown Cape Town, as the "Cape Town CBD" (Central Business District) Most South Africans will not understand if you ask there where Downtown Cape Town is.

How close is the beach from downtown in Cape Town?

There are a couple beaches starting in Mouille Point that are between 5-10 minutes drive from downtown Cape Town. These beaches have great places to walk, rocks and beautiful sunsets. However if you are looking to lay on the beach and tan we recommend driving a little further to Clifton Beach, Camps Bay Beach or even Llandudno.
