Cape Town weather is very unpredictable! Due to Table Mountain it's also usually completely different from the rest of South Africa too. Yes, it can be very similar to a Mediterranean winter. I lived there for 4 years. Some days it can be up in the high 20c's and then the following day it will rain torrentially and be only 8c! I would go with jeans, t-shirts, a pair of shorts mainly and take a jumper and a raincoat too. over 9 years ago

I agree with Helen! The weather can be very different from day to day. Just recently it was warm (in the low to mid 20's) but now it's dropped to 16. So it varies from jeans and t shirt weather to jeans and hoodie weather. Also depends where you're coming from as to how cold you'll feel :P over 9 years ago

Locals describe Cape Town weather as "4 seasons in a day". Dress in layers, a waterproof jacket or wind cheater is a good idea. It gets very windy! You can always take off a layer for the warmer spells. over 9 years ago
