It’s time to cosy up to the Black Marlin
Black Marlin makes the most of the pristine views and laid-back charm of the Southern Peninsula
Rounding Cape Point via Scarborough is one of the easiest ways to reach Black Marlin. After marvelous views of the Southern Peninsula, the flapping flags and signage are welcome landmarks on a forty kilometer stretch sparsely scattered with eateries.
Ample parking in the shade is welcome and at the sunny entrance we are greeted with a smile. Soon we reach a cheery Mediterranean-type terrace overlooking the ocean.
Nothing but seafood, blue skies and a scenic coastline.
Make your choice of each of the three courses below:
A complimentary sherry on arrival (either full cream medium or dry)
Starters: Seafood chowder OR Garden Salad OR Mussels OR Deep fried Calamari
Mains: Mixed Venison Skewer OR Linefish OR Millers Point Platter OR Prawn Curry
Desserts: Ice Cream and Berries OR Malva Pudding OR Angels Delight OR Cheese Cake
Tea OR coffee
Black Marlin is a secluded spot on the water’s edge, and has that pristine, refined natural charm that is so typical of the Cape Peninsula. Open since the mid 1960s, it’s idyllically set in a converted, colonial home on the skirts of Simonstown. It feels like it’s enveloped by nature. The panoramic view spans False Bay as far as Strand and Hangklip, underlined with aquamarine waters, outlined with jutting peaks and topped with endless blue sky.
