Geography & Demographics
The Mediterranean climate offers beautiful weather year round and more sunshine than Madrid. Winters last from June until August and are mild with usually only a couple colder fronts each year. Summers are warm with a few weeks of more extreme heat in late February and early March.
Cape Town lives in a biodiversity hotspot and many plants that grow on the mountains within the city don’t grow anywhere else in the world. The typically wet climate provides a lush landscape full of flowers and green plants year round.
