About this site
Partridge Point sits near Simon's Town on the False Bay coast of the Western Cape, South Africa, close to the entrance of the bay along the peninsula's eastern shore. This stretch of coastline is composed of rocky reef and kelp typical of the area around Simon's Town and the Cape Peninsula's naval harbor. It's considered a beginner site, and divers have reported pipefish among the reef and kelp here, along with sightings of Cape hope squid, gasflame nudibranchs, and yellowtail kingfish.
